Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tierra Prieta Colonia

The severe-burden share is 36%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Adults with no health insurance runs 46.4% against 11.3% nationally.

What pushes it up most is housing-court posture at 9.1/10. The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.7/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.7/10.

Disability prevalence runs 46.3% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 0.9 points above the Hidalgo County average of 3.9. Average gross rent is $904, 12% above the Donna average.

That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
