Against Nueces County at 48.0%, 44% of renters here are cost-burdened. At $1,140 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of Corpus Christi commands.

The worst year on record was 2002, when 7.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 4.6% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 38% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.4/10. It tracks the Nueces County average of 3.8 closely.
