Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Texarkana

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10. Average gross rent is $794, 13% below the Texarkana average.

Nationally it ranks #54,273 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 19% 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 6.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $56,635, annual rent is just 17%. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the Miller County average of 4.1 closely.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
