That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.7/10. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 3/10.
around a third of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, a little above the Dallas rate of 30.9%. Among the 36 mapped neighborhoods of Dallas, it ranks #32 by risk, the lower third.
For a like-for-like read, Lakewood and Lower Greenville score within a fraction of it. Its 3 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $111,630.
