Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Taylor
25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.6/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.8/10.
46% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Houston County average of 38.9%. The voucher gap is 20.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
The filing record is not thin: 110 evictions over 9 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2008 at 5.3% of renter households.
In a typical year about 2.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 22% 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.5/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
It tracks the Houston County average of 3.9 closely. Average gross rent is $1,081, close to the Taylor average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
