Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dignowity Hill
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 22.7% against 11.3% nationally. At $1,093 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of San Antonio commands.
The filing record is not thin: 569 evictions over 9 years of observation. Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points.
The worst year on record was 2008, when 13.5% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous").

In a typical year about 9.2% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #34,278 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
