Downtown Eviction Risk: Moderate , Midland

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, supply constraint reads 2/10.

At $792 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of Midland commands. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.6/10.

36% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Midland County average of 40.9%. The filing record is not thin: 30 evictions over 2 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2015 at 19.6% of renter households.

In a typical year about 15.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 17% 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 3.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $77,188, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Midland County average of 4.0 closely.

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.
