What drives eviction risk in Knob Hill
66% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Bexar County average of 48.2%. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 39.6% against 11.3% nationally.
The poverty rate is 53%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Disability prevalence runs 52.4% against 31.5% nationally. Annualized rent equals 41% of average household income of $25,300, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. At $872 a month, rents run 34% under what the rest of San Antonio commands. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.
65% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. Court records carry 327 eviction filings across 9 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2008, when 12.2% of renter households were served.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
