The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at 9.6/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Belle Glade, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Palm Beach County average of 5.0 and in line with the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 462 eviction filings here over 11 tracked years, with about 5.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 8.7% of renter households in 2003.
