Dade City Eviction Risk: Lower

The heaviest input here is economic stress at 3.1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Dade City, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Pasco County average of 4.8 and below the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 252 eviction filings here over 13 tracked years, with about 3.4% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 3.9% of renter households in 2012.

The tract is White and Hispanic or Latino and ranks around the 93rd percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. High vulnerability tends to track with higher eviction-filing rates when rents climb.

For a landlord, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
