Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Little Havana

Against Miami-Dade County at 57.9%, 77% of renters here are cost-burdened. Adults with no health insurance runs 31.0% against 11.3% nationally. The main counterweight is state political climate at 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.4 points above the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.3/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 82 filings here across 2 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2015 at 6.5% of renter households.

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. In a typical year about 5.0% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.1/10.

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