Adults with no health insurance runs 31.2% against 11.3% nationally. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $675, 29% below the Robstown average.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.3/10. On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $61,382, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
It tracks the Nueces County average of 3.8 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
