Sarita Valley Eviction Risk: Lower , Leander

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 10% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 0.8 points below the Williamson County average of 3.8. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 4.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $145,074, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 41% of renters.

Average gross rent is $1,912, close to the Leander average. 50% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
