ZIP 79526 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

ZIP code 79526 in Scurry County, Texas carries a composite property-distress score of 14/100 — a minimal reading on DLRadar's deterministic public-record index. Latent structural risk is 34/100 while live distress already moving reads 1/100. What sets it apart are the readings on construction/permit lag (100/100), structural risk (34/100), mortgage stress (4/100). On the quiet end sit mortgage stress (4/100) and institutional ownership (3/100).

Prices here sit in a peak phase: values rose 1.0% over the trailing year, at 10/100 phase confidence. Near a top, distress surfaces unevenly, so parcel screening beats headline strength.

Median household income is $71,818, near the U.S. median near $78,000. Educational attainment sits at 25% bachelor's-or-above. Roughly 4.3% live below the poverty line, a low share typical of higher-equity areas. About 978 people live here, median age 38. Rent burden reaches 5% of tenant households. There are about 468 housing units across 79526. A median home runs $143,800 here, or 2.0 times local income. The demographic-stress sub-score lands at 19/100. The vacancy rate is 18.2% — elevated. 86% of housing is owner-occupied.

On the whole, 79526 leans distressed, with opportunity clustered in specific stressed parcels. No parcel file is published for 79526 yet, but every score above is drawn from a verifiable public dataset and refreshed as records post.

No ZIP is too small to score: 79526 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 14/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. Where the public record is thin for 79526, the field stays empty rather than modeled, and fills in as new documents post.

79526's headline rolls up several separately-scored signals, which is why two ZIPs can share a composite yet face very different distress. Practically, 79526 works as a screen — verify the reading, drill to the specific parcels driving it, and carry the deal through capital and closing on the platform.
