Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lubbock

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $40,523 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 30%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10. It sits 1.0 points above the Lubbock County average of 3.6.

Adults with no health insurance runs 20.2% against 11.3% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 53% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.9/10.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. 46% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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