Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Fairmount
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Adults with no health insurance runs 23.5% against 11.3% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 758 evictions over 17 years of observation.
Average gross rent is $1,320, 13% below the Fort Worth average. The worst year on record was 2006, when 13.4% of renter households were served.
This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Fort Worth. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 6.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
