CDC Social Vulnerability Index
SVI percentile: 45
CDC/ATSDR 2022. Higher = more vulnerable. National percentile across 84k tracts.
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Average gross rent is $1,818, 12% above the Waxahachie average. Against the Ellis County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.
On the national scale it lands near the 27th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $99,219. 25% 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.
