Silver Hill Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 8,915 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.7/10 · range 5.7–5.7

Silver Hill spans 3 census tracts of Albuquerque, NM, population 8,915. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 51% against 31.4% citywide, putting Silver Hill 19.3% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 27%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.2/10. This is a renter market: 77% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Average gross rent is $824, 28% below the Albuquerque average of $1,145. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Running hot is economic stress at 7.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 419 evictions logged in this tract.

Filing activity peaked in 2000 at 7.4% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.8% in 2014, is well off that peak.

Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Albuquerque, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Its 3 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $35,959.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
