On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,336, 25% below the Miami Gardens average.
Adults with no health insurance runs 23.6% against 11.3% nationally. It sits 0.8 points above the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6.
On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.1/10. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.
