Woodlawn Lake Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 11,295 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.2/10 · range 5.2–5.2

Woodlawn Lake is a 3-tract neighborhood of San Antonio, TX, population 11,295. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, Moderate tier. 47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the San Antonio rate of 32.0%.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 27% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

The poverty rate is 28%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. Average gross rent is $1,006, 24% below the San Antonio average of $1,324.

Court records carry 411 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2006 at 5.0% of renter households. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10.

The most recent observed rate, 2.7% in 2008, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 88 neighborhoods in San Antonio.

Social vulnerability runs high at 9.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
