Analysis

What drives eviction risk in San Antonio

The voucher gap is 46.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 9.6/10. This is renter territory: 100% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Against Bexar County at 48.2%, 40% of renters here are cost-burdened. It sits 1.1 points below the Bexar County average of 4.1.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 8 filings here across 5 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2007, when 0.4% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for San Antonio. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

In a typical year about 0.2% of renter households face a filing.

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