Fort Lauderdale Eviction Risk: Moderate

Annualized rent equals 58% of average household income of $22,296, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 49%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Average gross rent is $1,070, 42% below the Fort Lauderdale average.

This is renter territory: 87% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Disability prevalence runs 46.1% against 31.5% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 23.2% against 11.3% nationally. Against the Broward County average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

The filing record is not thin: 851 evictions over 4 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2001, when 21.3% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 17.8% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
