Within Little Havana. Closest by Eviction Risk Score.
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 6.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Miami-Dade County average of 5.3 and in line with the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
The tract is predominantly Hispanic or Latino and ranks around the 64th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 15 eviction filings here over 2 tracked years, with about 1.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 2.1% of renter households in 2016.
