Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Sweetwater
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 9.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Miami-Dade County average of 5.3 and above the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 89 eviction filings here over 2 tracked years, with about 7.2% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.8% of renter households in 2016.
The tract is predominantly Hispanic or Latino and ranks around the 67th 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.
