Cheyenne Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 7,161 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Cheyenne is a 3-tract neighborhood of Laredo, TX, population 7,161. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, Moderate tier. Against a Laredo baseline of 32.2%, roughly one in two of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

30% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

70% 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. Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 8.4/10. Among the 29 mapped neighborhoods of Laredo, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.

Social vulnerability runs high at 9.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 3 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Average gross rent runs $1,091, close to the Laredo average.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $45,807.

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.
