Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pershing Park

98% 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. Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 25%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.8/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $27,553 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. At $796 a month, rents run 30% under what the rest of Albuquerque commands.

Food insecurity runs 34.5% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Bernalillo County average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7/10.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
