The Colony is a one-tract neighborhood of San Antonio, TX and houses 8,690 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Against a San Antonio baseline of 32.0%, 54% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
At $1,791 a month, rents sit 35% over what the rest of San Antonio commands. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 19.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 3/10.
That places it #60 of 88 neighborhoods in San Antonio. At 18% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Wynwood at the Villages of Westcreek and Deer Hollow score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $150,125, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 2%, 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.
