What drives eviction risk in Cat Mountain
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. At $3,501 a month, rents run 102% over what the rest of Austin commands. The voucher gap is 79.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
Disability prevalence runs 18.6% against 31.5% nationally. The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against the Travis County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 7% 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 1.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
