Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.4/10. At $1,757 a month, rents run 23% over what the rest of Pine Lake commands. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $70,046.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
