Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Park West

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 53%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

39% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Brazos County average of 53.3%. At $785 a month, rents run 34% under what the rest of College Station commands.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $28,333 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against the Brazos County average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 65th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 5.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
