The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $34,171 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
The poverty rate is 30%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 7.4/10.
Among the 9 mapped neighborhoods of Brownsville, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Only 23% 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, Southmost and Riverside score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Average gross rent runs $912, close to the Brownsville average.
One tract means one number: 4.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
