Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Barelas

Average gross rent is $637, 44% below the Albuquerque average. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.8/10. The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Food insecurity runs 32.4% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.3/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Bernalillo County average of 4.3.

Adults with no health insurance runs 23.0% against 11.3% nationally. Court records carry 479 eviction filings across 15 observed years. 8% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Filings peaked in 2007 at 7.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 5.4% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #21,564 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
