Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Jungle Terrace
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.
At $1,927 a month, rents run 16% over what the rest of St. Petersburg commands. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 206 filings here across 18 tracked years.
Cost burden runs 49% here against 53.4% across Pinellas County. It sits 0.8 points below the Pinellas County average of 3.8.
The worst year on record was 2003, when 13.5% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 5.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 9% 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 4.7/10, 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.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
