Pharr Eviction Risk: Lower

26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty at 1.3/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.3/10.

Cost burden runs 37% here against 42.3% across Hidalgo County. The voucher gap is 16.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

At $1,160 a month, rents run 12% over what the rest of Pharr commands. Nationally it ranks #59,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.3/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Hidalgo County average of 3.9 closely.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
