Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Overtown
The dominant input is economic stress at 9.6/10. Cost burden runs 73% here against 57.9% across Miami-Dade County. The poverty rate is 38%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. At $1,161 a month, rents run 34% under what the rest of Miami commands. This is renter territory: 81% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Adults with no health insurance runs 29.1% against 11.3% nationally. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
Against the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. Court records carry 67 eviction filings across 2 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2016, when 3.6% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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 4.1% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 78% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
