Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Arlington

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. This is renter territory: 68% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 3,679 evictions over 17 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2010 at 26.0% of renter households.

In a typical year about 17.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 42nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 7.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. It tracks the Tarrant County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $1,417, close to the Arlington average.

Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $55,838.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
