Lions Gate On The Island Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,130 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.6–3.6

Lions Gate On The Island is a one-tract neighborhood of St. Augustine, FL and houses 6,130 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. 50% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the St. Augustine rate of 33.9%.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 26% 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.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.4/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10. Average gross rent is $1,460, 12% below the St. Augustine average of $1,653.

Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of St. Augustine, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third. Only 20% 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. For a like-for-like read, Anastasia Island Town Homes and Madeira at Saint Augustine score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $91,306, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
