What drives eviction risk in Columbia Heights
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 24% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.7/10.
At $999 a month, rents run 25% under what the rest of San Antonio commands. The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 197 filings here across 9 tracked years.
Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points. The worst year on record was 2001, when 7.0% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 5.3% of renter households face a filing.
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.
