Helbig maps to a single census tract in Beaumont, TX and houses 3,941 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.2/10, in the Moderate tier. 46% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Beaumont rate of 32.6%.
89% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
17% 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 poverty rate is 21%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 3/10.
That places it #6 of 12 neighborhoods in Beaumont. For a like-for-like read, Sunnyside and Mount Evergreen score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Average gross rent runs $1,102, close to the Beaumont average. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $47,957.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
