What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. 35% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 45%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Set annual rent against average income of $26,522 and the ratio lands at 48%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Adults with no health insurance runs 33.4% against 11.3% nationally.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,070, 27% below the Dallas average.

Disability prevalence runs 44.7% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 1.3 points above the Dallas County average of 3.8. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

Nationally it ranks #31,049 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 9.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
