Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fruit Cove

The severe-burden share is 33%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10.

The voucher gap is 28.4%: 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: 1 evictions over 1 years of observation. Against the St. Johns County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.

The worst year on record was 2008, when 1.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.2% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

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