That places it #20 of 29 neighborhoods in Laredo. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied.

Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Against average income of $82,625, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion.
Average gross rent runs $973, close to the Laredo average.
One tract means one number: 3.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
