Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fruitland Park

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. It sits 2.1 points above the Lake County average of 3.8. This is renter territory: 73% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. The poverty rate is 26%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running hot, housing-court posture reads 7.7/10. The filing record is not thin: 815 evictions over 14 years of observation. Housing insecurity runs 22.4% against 14.2% nationally.

Average gross rent is $888, 14% below the Painesville average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 7.4% of renter households. In a typical year about 5.9% of renter households face a filing.
