Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Boca Raton

Cost burden runs 85% here against 53.5% across Palm Beach County. Annualized rent equals 44% of average household income of $80,875, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The voucher gap is 34.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Running hot, supply constraint reads 8.5/10. At $2,946 a month, rents run 17% over what the rest of Boca Raton commands. The filing record is not thin: 29 evictions over 10 years of observation.

It sits 0.9 points below the Palm Beach County average of 4.1. Filings peaked in 2010 at 1.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 0.4% of renter households face a filing.

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.
