Little Texas Eviction Risk: Moderate , Austin

Adults with no health insurance runs 32.1% against 11.3% nationally. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Travis County average of 44.8%. The clearest offset is state political climate at 1.5/10.

Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $48,456, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Travis County average of 4.0.

Average gross rent is $1,335, 23% below the Austin average. The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Court records carry 831 eviction filings across 12 observed years. Filings peaked in 2007 at 6.9% of renter households.

In a typical year about 3.9% of renter households face a filing.

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