Shavano Heights maps to a single census tract in San Antonio, TX, population 5,003. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.2/10. Cost burden runs 27% against 32.0% citywide, putting Shavano Heights 5.5% under its own city. Court records for this tract carry 53 eviction filings.

Average gross rent is $1,442, 9% above the San Antonio average of $1,324. The most recent observed rate, 2.1% in 2008, is well off that peak. Among the 88 mapped neighborhoods of San Antonio, it ranks #60 by risk, the lower third.
At 28% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
