Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dallas

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 25%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Cost burden runs 52% here against 47.9% across Dallas County.

At $1,674 a month, rents run 14% over what the rest of Dallas commands. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Dallas. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. Nationally it ranks #48,956 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.8/10. 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 30% of average household income of $66,352.

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.
