Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Catholic Worker Houses
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 6.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Kirby, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Bexar County average of 5.2 and in line with the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
The tract is predominantly Hispanic or Latino and ranks around the 81st percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. High vulnerability tends to track with higher eviction-filing rates when rents climb.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 173 eviction filings here over 9 tracked years, with about 5.6% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 7.3% of renter households in 2001.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
