What drives eviction risk in Candlelight Park
58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Bernalillo County average of 43.9%. 29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.8/10. The voucher gap is 22.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.2/10.
Court records carry 169 eviction filings across 14 observed years. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7/10.
Filings peaked in 2014 at 25.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 11.0% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 44th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
It tracks the Bernalillo County average of 4.3 closely.
