Dallas Eviction Risk: Lower

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.1/10. 78% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Against Dallas County at 47.9%, 40% of renters here are cost-burdened. Adults with no health insurance runs 21.6% against 11.3% nationally. The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 27th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 6.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Dallas County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $1,359, close to the Dallas average.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
