Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Barelas

The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. 70% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.9/10.

roughly one in two of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Bernalillo County average of 43.9%. At $922 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Albuquerque commands. Court records carry 976 eviction filings across 15 observed years.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7/10. It sits 0.7 points above the Bernalillo County average of 4.3. The worst year on record was 2007, when 9.4% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 6.2% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 7.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
