Cielito Lindo Colonia maps to a single census tract in Brownsville, TX, population 4,386. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 35%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
On the high side is economic stress at 8.7/10. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 30% of renter households. Among the 9 mapped neighborhoods of Brownsville, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third.
Only 6% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Riverside and Kellers Corner Colonia score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 4.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
