Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Converse

What moves this score most is rent-control risk at $1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Converse, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Bexar County average of 5.2 and above the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 365 eviction filings here over 9 tracked years, with about 10.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 18.0% of renter households in 2008.

The tract is Hispanic or Latino and White and ranks around the 70th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
