Ventana del Sol Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,836 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Ventana del Sol maps to a single census tract in McAllen, TX, population 4,836. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 35% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

The voucher gap is 38.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the high side is supply constraint at 8.9/10.

At $1,378 a month, rents sit 31% over what the rest of McAllen commands. Running cool is economic stress, at 2/10.

Against a McAllen baseline of 30.5%, around a third of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. That places it #6 of 9 neighborhoods in McAllen. Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

The closest comparables inside the same city are The Embers and Sharyland Plantation. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $78,933.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
