Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bivins Addition

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Average gross rent is $742, 32% below the Amarillo average. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.4/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

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. Nationally it ranks #63,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $52,037, annual rent is just 17%. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the Potter County average of 3.7 closely. 30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
