What drives eviction risk in Fairmount

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

At $1,165 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Fort Worth commands. The filing record is not thin: 943 evictions over 17 years of observation. Against the Tarrant County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.

The worst year on record was 2011, when 19.0% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable").

In a typical year about 10.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.9/10.
