Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sweetwater

Against Miami-Dade County at 57.9%, 81% of renters here are cost-burdened. Annualized rent equals 51% of average household income of $51,288, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9.4/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 31.4% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.3/10. It sits 0.9 points below the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6.

Average gross rent is $2,161, 11% above the Tamiami average. On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.7/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 45% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
