The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $955 a month, rents run 15% under what the rest of Beaumont commands.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
