These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Brooks

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Cost burden runs 61% here against 48.2% across Bexar County.

Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $29,580, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The severe-burden share is 26%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

This is renter territory: 73% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $975, 26% below the San Antonio average.

Disability prevalence runs 44.0% against 31.5% nationally. The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 174 filings here across 9 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2008 at 7.6% of renter households.

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.
