Higgins Eviction Risk: Moderate , Beaumont

Adults with no health insurance runs 29.3% against 11.3% nationally. Against Jefferson County at 44.6%, 56% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

Disability prevalence runs 43.5% against 31.5% nationally. The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

It sits 0.8 points above the Jefferson County average of 4.0. 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.

At $1,031 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of Beaumont commands. Nationally it ranks #35,669 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
