Hidalgo Eviction Risk: Lower

27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 30% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Hidalgo County average of 42.3%.

The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty at 1.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.6/10.

Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Against the Hidalgo County average of 3.9, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 10% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $67,384, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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.
