1 census tracts · pop 3,558 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Basham Number 18 Colonia is a one-tract neighborhood of Palmview, TX, population 3,558. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Palmview rate of 31.8%.

Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.2/10. The poverty rate is 34%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 8.6/10. The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Running hot is housing-court posture at 8.4/10. The closest comparables inside the same city are Mata Colonia Number 2 and Basham Number 15 Colonia. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
