Barrington Hills Eviction Risk: Lower , Clearwater

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.5/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 328 filings here across 18 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2002, when 15.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 5.4% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #56,048 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 16% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 6.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. It tracks the Pinellas County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $1,736, close to the Clearwater average.

Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $67,054.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
