Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bivins Addition

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10.

48% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Potter County average of 42.1%. Adults with no health insurance runs 18.6% against 11.3% nationally. It sits 0.7 points below the Potter County average of 3.7.

Average gross rent is $994, 9% below the Amarillo average. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 7.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
