Brownsville Eviction Risk: Moderate

Adults with no health insurance runs 41.8% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 42%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Disability prevalence runs 43.6% against 31.5% nationally. Cost burden runs 49% here against 42.8% across Cameron County.

The filing record is not thin: 22 evictions over 3 years of observation. It sits 0.8 points above the Cameron County average of 3.9.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 3.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.4% 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.
