Higgins Eviction Risk: Lower , Beaumont

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 27.3% against 11.3% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 8.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 43% of renters. It tracks the Jefferson County average of 4.0 closely. Average gross rent is $1,041, close to the Beaumont average.

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.
