Loma Colorado is a 4-tract suburb of Rio Rancho, NM and houses 23,459 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Rio Rancho baseline of 31.0%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.1/10. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.2. A 1.2-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. At $1,336 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Rio Rancho commands. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10.
Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
