Margate Eviction Risk: Moderate

90% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Broward County average of 59.1%. Annualized rent equals 44% of average household income of $43,697, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.2/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Court records carry 10 eviction filings across 3 observed years. Filings peaked in 2016 at 3.4% of renter households.

Average gross rent is $1,610, 8% below the Margate average. In a typical year about 3.4% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #37,882 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 8% 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 7.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

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.
