Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Miami Gardens

Annualized rent equals 64% of average household income of $37,407, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Against Miami-Dade County at 57.9%, 73% of renters here are cost-burdened. Pulling hardest the other way is state political climate at 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 32%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. On the high side, economic stress reads 7.9/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 23.0% against 11.3% nationally. Against the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points. Average gross rent is $1,992, 11% above the Miami Gardens average.

That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

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.
