The Village Eviction Risk: Moderate , Dallas

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Disability prevalence runs 18.2% against 31.5% nationally.

41% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Dallas County average of 47.9%. The filing record is not thin: 348 evictions over 18 years of observation.

At $1,325 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Dallas commands. The worst year on record was 2009, when 3.4% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Dallas County average of 3.8 closely. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $61,704.

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