Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fruit Cove

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 30.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.5/10.

The filing record is not thin: 25 evictions over 5 years of observation. Against the St. Johns County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. Filings peaked in 2006 at 2.0% of renter households.

In a typical year about 2.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
