What drives eviction risk in South Los Altos

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. SNAP participation runs 53.0% against 15.2% nationally.

Average gross rent is $869, 24% below the Albuquerque average. It sits 1.4 points above the Bernalillo County average of 4.3. On the national scale it lands near the 74th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
