Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Española Way
The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. The severe-burden share is 32%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running hot, economic stress reads 9.6/10.
The poverty rate is 38%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10. Set annual rent against average income of $64,896 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
Adults with no health insurance runs 24.0% against 11.3% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 9 evictions over 2 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2015 at 0.8% of renter households.
This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Miami. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
