Analysis

What drives eviction risk in El Paso

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 30%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

At $934 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of El Paso commands. Filings peaked in 2012 at 2.2% of renter households.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for El Paso. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
