Atrisco takes in 5 census tracts of Albuquerque, NM, population 18,334. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.1/10, in the Moderate tier. roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Albuquerque rate of 31.4%.
33% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. 25.6% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.2 to 5.7, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 2.7/10. The poverty rate is 20%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Court records for this tract carry 394 eviction filings.
15.6% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 10.6% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,027, 10% below the Albuquerque average of $1,145.
The most recent observed rate, 3.6% in 2014, is well off that peak. Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Albuquerque, it ranks #11 by risk, the upper third. Only 28% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
For a like-for-like read, La Cuesta and Barelas score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.5 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
