Oak Ridge Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 7,711 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Oak Ridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Allen, TX, population 7,711. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Allen baseline of 32.8%, 96% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Average gross rent is $3,501, 81% above the Allen average of $1,932. The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 10/10.

The voucher gap is 85.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.3/10.

That places it #8 of 11 neighborhoods in Allen. Only 4% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Watters Creek and Twin Creeks. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $158,750.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
