Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Vista Encantada
The heaviest input here is supply constraint at 6.3/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Bernalillo County average of 6.1 and above the New Mexico statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
The tract is Hispanic or Latino and White and ranks around the 58th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 0.94x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, a little under the pre-pandemic norm.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
