Netherwood Park takes in 3 census tracts of Albuquerque, NM and houses 12,513 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Albuquerque baseline of 31.4%, 55% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
32% 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. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
The poverty rate is 25%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.7 to 5.7, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
Court records carry 5,126 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2008 at 34.0% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 8.6% in 2014, is well off that peak. Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Albuquerque, it ranks #9 by risk, the upper third. For a like-for-like read, Barelas and La Cuesta score within a fraction of it.
Average gross rent runs $1,080, close to the Albuquerque average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $51,925.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1 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.
