Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lake Highlands
The voucher gap is 35.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 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.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 18.8% against 31.5% nationally. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 10% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 2.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $179,330, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
