Dallas Eviction Risk: Lower

Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 9%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. Average gross rent is $1,329, 10% below the Dallas average.

That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 4.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 50% of renters. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $65,952.

64% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
