Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Riviera Beach
What moves this score most is rent-control risk at 8.8/10. 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 Riviera Beach, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
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.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 38 eviction filings here over 11 tracked years, with about 3.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.3% of renter households in 2012.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.00x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.
