Analysis

What drives eviction risk in The Falls

63% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Brevard County average of 48.9%. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty at 1.1/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $67,240, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.7/10. It sits 1.2 points above the Brevard County average of 3.9.

The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $1,832 a month, rents run 14% over what the rest of Palm Bay commands. Adults with no health insurance runs 19.2% against 11.3% nationally.

The voucher gap is 12.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

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