Blue Star Eviction Risk: Moderate , San Antonio

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 26.5% against 11.3% nationally.

Average gross rent is $1,634, 23% above the San Antonio average. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 148 filings here across 9 tracked years. Severe burden reaches 8%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The worst year on record was 2007, when 3.8% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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 2.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 53% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.9/10.

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.
