Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Buffalo Ranch

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. 25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. Set annual rent against average income of $59,675 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.2/10. Nationally it ranks #11,153 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the NV average is 4.5, so this tract runs 2.8 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

roughly one in two of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Average gross rent is $1,640, close to the Spring Valley average.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
