Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Highland Lakes

The score leans hardest on rent-control risk at 9.3/10. 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 Aventura, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Miami-Dade County average of 5.3 and above the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.26x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 18 eviction filings here over 2 tracked years, with about 9.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 10.6% of renter households in 2016.

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