Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Amberleigh Station

The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.1/10.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,935, 29% above the Gainesville average. The voucher gap is 26.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
