Chinese Village is a 2-tract neighborhood of Coral Gables, FL, population 3,946. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.6/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Coral Gables baseline of 33.1%, roughly one in two of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The severe-burden share is 27%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 3 to 5.4. A 2.4-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
