Bent Tree Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,448 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Bent Tree maps to a single census tract in San Antonio, TX, population 4,448. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 34%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. At $1,733 a month, rents sit 31% over what the rest of San Antonio commands. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

Cost burden runs 41% against 32.0% citywide, putting Bent Tree 8.5% over its own city. The voucher gap is 15.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

The filing record is not thin: 25 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 3.9% of renter households. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 3/10.

Recent filings have not receded much: 3.9% in 2008 against a 3.9% peak. That places it #60 of 88 neighborhoods in San Antonio.

Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
