Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Texarkana

Against Miller County at 44.4%, 31% of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10. It sits 0.9 points below the Miller County average of 4.1.

That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 8% 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 3.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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.
