15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The filing record is not thin: 1,126 evictions over 18 years of observation. Average gross rent is $1,266, 14% below the Dallas average.
Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points. The worst year on record was 2003, when 25.0% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 12.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.1/10.
Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $153,484, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
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.
