Deerfield Beach Eviction Risk: Moderate

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9.2/10. Annualized rent equals 38% of average household income of $52,200, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Against Broward County at 59.1%, 49% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. It sits 1.6 points above the Broward County average of 4.3.

The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Nationally it ranks #19,618 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 8.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $1,662, close to the Deerfield Beach average. 30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
