Austin Eviction Risk: Lower

The severe-burden share is 28%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 25.8% against 11.3% nationally. about half of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Travis County average of 44.8%.

That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 6.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $91,000, annual rent is just 11%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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