Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Little Havana

Set annual rent against average income of $22,091 and the ratio lands at 62%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 44.2% against 11.3% nationally. 74% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Miami-Dade County average of 57.9%. The poverty rate is 43%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

This is renter territory: 92% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Average gross rent is $1,148, 35% below the Miami average.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6.

Court records carry 161 eviction filings across 2 observed years. Filings peaked in 2015 at 6.9% of renter households.

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.
