Shavano Highlands maps to a single census tract in San Antonio, TX and houses 9,601 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.1/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 45% against 32.0% citywide, putting Shavano Highlands 12.8% over its own city.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. At $1,688 a month, rents sit 27% over what the rest of San Antonio commands. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.8/10.
Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Court records for this tract carry 42 eviction filings. The voucher gap is 12.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Filing activity peaked in 2002 at 7.2% of renter households. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10.
The most recent observed rate, 0.9% in 2008, is well off that peak. Among the 88 mapped neighborhoods of San Antonio, it ranks #58 by risk, the middle third.
Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $74,882. 61% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.1/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
