San Antonio Eviction Risk: Moderate

Severe burden reaches 34%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Disability prevalence runs 50.7% against 31.5% nationally.

Set annual rent against average income of $37,835 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, economic stress reads 8.6/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. It sits 1.1 points above the Bexar County average of 4.1.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 163 filings here across 9 tracked years. At $1,167 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of San Antonio commands. The worst year on record was 2008, when 3.7% of renter households were served.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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.
