Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Wedgwood

Cost burden runs 64% here against 50.2% across Tarrant County. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.4/10.

72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. At $1,084 a month, rents run 28% under what the rest of Fort Worth commands.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Against the Tarrant County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points. That is riskier than roughly 53% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $53,018.

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.
