Palm Coast Eviction Risk: Lower

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

It sits 0.6 points below the Flagler County average of 3.9. That is riskier than roughly 27% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 13% 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 3.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 56% of renters. Average gross rent is $1,764, close to the Palm Coast average. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $68,008.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
