Coopers Alley L-Head takes in 3 census tracts of Corpus Christi, TX, population 5,357. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Corpus Christi baseline of 31.1%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 28%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
77% 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. Average gross rent is $915, 29% below the Corpus Christi average of $1,292. The poverty rate is 31%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.9/10. Court records for this tract carry 108 eviction filings.
Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 9.9% of renter households. Among the 8 mapped neighborhoods of Corpus Christi, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third.
Judgments average 5.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
