Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Indian Hills

The score leans hardest on economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Grand Prairie eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

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.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 614 eviction filings here over 18 tracked years, with about 6.6% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.0% of renter households in 2013.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.44x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.

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