These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in San Antonio

Adults with no health insurance runs 40.2% against 11.3% nationally. Against Bexar County at 48.2%, roughly two in three of renters here are cost-burdened. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.1/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $29,921 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. At $911 a month, rents run 31% under what the rest of San Antonio commands. Disability prevalence runs 48.8% against 31.5% nationally.

Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.8/10. Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 887 filings here across 9 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2007, when 13.3% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

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.
