Arts District Eviction Risk: Lower , Dallas

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 35% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Dallas County average of 47.9%. 81% 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. Disability prevalence runs 15.7% against 31.5% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The voucher gap is 17.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

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 D ("Hazardous"). 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.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 1.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. 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.

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