Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Corpus Christi

What moves this score most is economic stress at 5.2/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Nueces County average of 5.0 and in line with the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
