Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lighthouse Point

The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at $1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Lighthouse Point, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Broward County average of 5.4 and in line with the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 264 eviction filings here over 4 tracked years, with about 8.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.5% of renter households in 2016.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 0.93x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, a little under the pre-pandemic norm.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
