Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Albuquerque

Against Bernalillo County at 43.9%, 70% of renters here are cost-burdened. Average gross rent is $1,688, 47% above the Albuquerque average.

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 8.8/10. Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $54,545, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Food insecurity runs 34.3% against 17.8% nationally. The voucher gap is 26.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Adults with no health insurance runs 26.8% against 11.3% nationally.

Against the Bernalillo County average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 7.7/10.
