Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Westwood Lakes

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. It sits 1.6 points below the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10.

At $2,241 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Westwood Lakes commands. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability reads 7.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $98,810.
