Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bivins Addition

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. At $1,415 a month, rents run 30% over what the rest of Amarillo commands. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 22.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Against Potter County at 42.1%, 35% of renters here are cost-burdened. It sits 0.7 points below the Potter County average of 3.7.

This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Amarillo. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.2/10.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
