Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dallas

What moves this score most is supply constraint at 4.5/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

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

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,289 eviction filings here over 18 tracked years, with about 11.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 35.5% of renter households in 2007.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.05x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
