Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dallas

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 5.7/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Dallas County average of 5.2 and above the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 0.92x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, a little under the pre-pandemic norm.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2,045 eviction filings here over 18 tracked years, with about 10.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.8% of renter households in 2005.
