Tampa Bay ZIP areas with the highest rent burden

By Ryszard (Richard) Cieplechowicz. Source: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 five-year estimates.

These 25 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas top the rent burden ranking: the largest shares of renter households paying at least 30% of household income in gross rent. They are drawn from 124 adequately sampled areas in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Hernando counties.

A high place on this list does not mean rents rose fastest here. It means a larger share of current renter households cross the 30% cost line, which can reflect lower incomes as much as higher rents. Figures are five-year survey estimates with margins of error.
