Higgins Eviction Risk: Moderate , Beaumont

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $846 a month, rents run 25% under what the rest of Beaumont commands. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 24.3% against 11.3% nationally. It sits 0.8 points above the Jefferson County average of 4.0. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.3/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.
