Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Rio Rancho

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.4/10. The voucher gap is 21.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.5/10. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, supply constraint reads 7.2/10.

Against the Sandoval County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 6% 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.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the NM average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $1,620, close to the Rio Rancho average.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
