Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Edinburg

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 9.7/10. The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Average gross rent is $774, 22% below the Edinburg average. Disability prevalence runs 43.5% against 31.5% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 47% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 15% 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 9.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 41% of renters. It tracks the Hidalgo County average of 3.9 closely. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $49,081.

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.
