Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Knox

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Disability prevalence runs 13.0% against 31.5% nationally.

74% 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. At $1,887 a month, rents run 28% over what the rest of Dallas commands.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. It sits 0.8 points below the Dallas County average of 3.8. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $114,699.
