Summerfield Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,686 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Summerfield is a one-tract neighborhood of Edinburg, TX and houses 5,686 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 55%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

55% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Edinburg rate of 28.6%. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

The poverty rate is 21%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10.

Among the 15 mapped neighborhoods of Edinburg, it ranks #12 by risk, the lower third. At 19% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Victoria Heights and Big Valley. Rent takes 10% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Average gross rent runs $1,020, close to the Edinburg average.

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.
