Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Alamo

The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1.2/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10.

Cost burden runs roughly one in two here against 42.3% across Hidalgo County. At $613 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of Alamo commands. The poverty rate is 23%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $59,429, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Hidalgo County average of 3.9 closely.

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.
