The score leans hardest on rent-control risk at 8.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Palm Beach Gardens, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Palm Beach County average of 5.0 and in line with the Florida statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 79 eviction filings here over 11 tracked years, with about 6.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.0% of renter households in 2002.
