Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Court records carry 156 eviction filings across 10 observed years. Against the Bay County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.

Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.
