Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Miami Gardens

Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. At $1,309 a month, rents run 27% under what the rest of Miami Gardens commands. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Adults with no health insurance runs 23.2% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points.

That is riskier than roughly 65% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. 58% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
