Pineapple Corner is a one-tract neighborhood of Sarasota, FL and houses 1,474 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. 47% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
63% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Sarasota rate of 34.8%. At $2,452 a month, rents sit 46% over what the rest of Sarasota commands.
The voucher gap is 32.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.2/10.
On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10.
That places it #7 of 7 neighborhoods in Sarasota. Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $113,750.
One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
