Forney Eviction Risk: Lower

Against Kaufman County at 46.8%, roughly three in four of renters here are cost-burdened. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10.

Average gross rent is $2,391, 31% above the Forney average. The voucher gap is 26.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. It sits 0.9 points below the Kaufman County average of 3.9. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 6% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. 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 19% of average household income of $147,587.

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.
