Big Valley maps to a single census tract in Edinburg, TX, population 6,507. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
65% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Cost burden runs roughly one in three against 28.6% citywide, putting Big Valley 5.3% over its own city.
The voucher gap is 16.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. At $1,156 a month, rents sit 16% over what the rest of Edinburg commands.
Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 3/10. That places it #12 of 15 neighborhoods in Edinburg. For a like-for-like read, Summerfield and Victoria Heights score within a fraction of it.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $65,152.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
