Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dinner Key

At $2,675 a month, rents run 52% over what the rest of Miami commands. Pulling hardest the other way is state political climate at 1.5/10.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. It sits 1.4 points below the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6.

The severe-burden share is 10%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.8/10. Court records carry 17 eviction filings across 2 observed years.

The voucher gap is 14.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The worst year on record was 2015, when 2.2% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.

In a typical year about 1.9% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #63,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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