Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Beacon Hill

Against Bexar County at 48.2%, 65% of renters here are cost-burdened. Adults with no health insurance runs 35.3% against 11.3% nationally.

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.4/10.

It sits 1.1 points above the Bexar County average of 4.1. Court records carry 85 eviction filings across 9 observed years. Average gross rent is $1,138, 14% below the San Antonio average.

The worst year on record was 2005, when 4.1% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.

In a typical year about 3.3% of renter households face a filing.

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