Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Pajarito
Average gross rent is $1,280, 34% above the South Valley average. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Bernalillo County average of 43.9%. Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 7.1/10. The filing record is not thin: 142 evictions over 15 years of observation.
Adults with no health insurance runs 19.0% against 11.3% nationally. Filings peaked in 2000 at 7.7% of renter households.
In a typical year about 3.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 9% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.2/10. It tracks the Bernalillo County average of 4.3 closely.
Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $64,045.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
