Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Miami
Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. This is renter territory: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. At $1,193 a month, rents run 32% under what the rest of Miami commands.
Set annual rent against average income of $40,441 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 26.2% against 11.3% nationally. Against the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 484 filings here across 2 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2015, when 31.3% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 26.1% of renter households face a filing.
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.
