Gillespie Park Eviction Risk: Moderate , Sarasota

Cost burden runs 65% here against 50.3% across Sarasota County. Average gross rent is $1,052, 38% below the Sarasota average.

The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $36,600, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.6/10.

This is renter territory: 72% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Against the Sarasota County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.8 points. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 28%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Adults with no health insurance runs 20.9% against 11.3% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 457 evictions over 5 years of observation.

The worst year on record was 2002, when 15.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 9.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 73rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
