Analysis

What drives eviction risk in St. Petersburg

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.6/10.

Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 45% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Pinellas County average of 53.4%.

The filing record is not thin: 95 evictions over 18 years of observation. It sits 0.8 points below the Pinellas County average of 3.8. At $1,881 a month, rents run 13% over what the rest of St. Petersburg commands.

The worst year on record was 2013, when 2.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.4/10.

Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.

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