Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Downtown
The severe-burden share is 35%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Adults with no health insurance runs 36.6% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 46%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Annualized rent equals 46% of average household income of $28,309, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Disability prevalence runs 52.2% against 31.5% nationally.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. 71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,087, 16% below the Corpus Christi average. It sits 0.9 points above the Nueces County average of 3.8.
The filing record is not thin: 163 evictions over 4 years of observation.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
