The score leans hardest on rent-control risk at 8.9/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Miami-Dade County average of 5.3 and below the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
