Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lake Worth Beach
The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 9.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Palm Beach County average of 5.0 and above the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
