What drives eviction risk in Columbia Heights
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $39,938, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
38% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Bexar County average of 48.2%. The severe-burden share is 20%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10. The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.
Average gross rent is $1,121, 15% below the San Antonio average. The filing record is not thin: 122 evictions over 9 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2007, when 5.3% 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.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
