McAllen Eviction Risk: Moderate

66% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Hidalgo County average of 42.3%. Annualized rent equals 56% of average household income of $15,638, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 45.7% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 75%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Disability prevalence runs 50.9% against 31.5% nationally. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Average gross rent is $728, 31% below the McAllen average.

74% 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. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

It sits 0.8 points above the Hidalgo County average of 3.9. That is riskier than roughly 55% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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