Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Miami Gardens

Cost burden runs 80% here against 57.9% across Miami-Dade County. Set annual rent against average income of $32,476 and the ratio lands at 49%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

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.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
