Against Potter County at 42.1%, roughly one in three of renters here are cost-burdened. This is renter territory: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 43.7% against 31.5% nationally.

The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Adults with no health insurance runs 19.2% against 11.3% nationally. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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.

Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
