Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Española Way

32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $77,308 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.6/10.

At $2,161 a month, rents run 18% over what the rest of Miami Beach commands. The filing record is not thin: 52 evictions over 2 years of observation. It sits 0.8 points above the Miami-Dade County average of 4.6.

The worst year on record was 2015, when 5.6% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 3.8% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 5.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

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.
