Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Española Way

Severe burden reaches 31%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.6/10.

Cost burden runs roughly one in two here against 57.9% across Miami-Dade County. Average gross rent is $2,141, 17% above the Miami Beach average.

Against the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

Nationally it ranks #23,808 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.3/10. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $80,318.

57% 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.
