Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Coopers Alley L-Head

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 31.7% against 11.3% nationally. 60% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Nueces County average of 48.0%.

Set annual rent against average income of $38,333 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 67% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.3/10. Disability prevalence runs 44.9% against 31.5% nationally.

The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. At $1,055 a month, rents run 18% under what the rest of Corpus Christi commands.

It sits 0.7 points above the Nueces County average of 3.8. That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
