Brownsville Eviction Risk: Moderate

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the high side, economic stress reads 9/10.

The poverty rate is 36%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 44.9% against 31.5% nationally. At $765 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Brownsville commands.

It sits 0.9 points above the Cameron County average of 3.9. Court records carry 58 eviction filings across 3 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 3.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.0% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 10/10.

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