What drives eviction risk in College Heights
The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 49.2% against 11.3% nationally.
The poverty rate is 46%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Disability prevalence runs 51.9% against 31.5% nationally.
Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $27,237, 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. 66% 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. Cost burden runs 51% here against 42.3% across Hidalgo County.
At $827 a month, rents run 21% under what the rest of McAllen commands. It sits 0.7 points above the Hidalgo County average of 3.9. Nationally it ranks #39,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
