Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Fort Worth
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. This is renter territory: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 582 evictions over 17 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2007, when 29.4% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 10.0% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. about half of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Tarrant County average of 3.8 closely.
Average gross rent is $1,466, close to the Fort Worth average. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $64,209.
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.
