Boca Raton Eviction Risk: Moderate

Set annual rent against average income of $64,023 and the ratio lands at 51%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Against Palm Beach County at 53.5%, roughly two in three of renters here are cost-burdened.

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 25.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.5/10. Against the Palm Beach County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. At $2,737 a month, rents run 9% over what the rest of Boca Raton commands.

On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

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.
