Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Martineztown-Santa Barbara

64% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Bernalillo County average of 43.9%. Set annual rent against average income of $22,629 and the ratio lands at 47%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is renter territory: 91% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 8.8/10. The poverty rate is 30%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.7/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Bernalillo County average of 4.3. Average gross rent is $886, 23% below the Albuquerque average.

On the high side, economic stress reads 7.6/10. The filing record is not thin: 548 evictions over 15 years of observation.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

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.
