Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ennis
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 7.3/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Ellis County average of 4.7 and below the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 49th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
