Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Moonlight

Adults with no health insurance runs 45.7% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 44%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Disability prevalence runs 48.8% against 31.5% nationally. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Average gross rent is $793, 23% below the Laredo average. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 0.8 points above the Webb County average of 4.0. On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 11% 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. Social vulnerability reads 9.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 45% of renters. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $38,942.

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.
