Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Hardrock Canyon
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 67% 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.
On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The filing record is not thin: 267 evictions over 12 years of observation.
Against the Travis County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. At $1,566 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Austin commands.
Filings peaked in 2010 at 3.0% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 27% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Social vulnerability reads 3.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
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.
