Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Little Haiti

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 48%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Set annual rent against average income of $31,406 and the ratio lands at 48%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 71% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Miami-Dade County average of 57.9%.

84% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Adults with no health insurance runs 30.4% against 11.3% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Average gross rent is $1,246, 29% below the Miami average. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Disability prevalence runs 44.5% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 1.4 points above the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
