Trenton Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,449 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Trenton Village maps to a single census tract in McAllen, TX, population 2,449. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a McAllen baseline of 30.5%, 42% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 26%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The voucher gap is 21.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 7.2/10. At $1,208 a month, rents sit 15% over what the rest of McAllen commands. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 3/10.

That places it #6 of 9 neighborhoods in McAllen. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $68,750. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
