Hi Line Eviction Risk: Moderate , Dallas

The severe-burden share is 28%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Cost burden runs 39% here against 47.9% across Dallas County. At $1,109 a month, rents run 25% under what the rest of Dallas commands.

Disability prevalence runs 44.5% against 31.5% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 259 filings here across 18 tracked years. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points.

Filings peaked in 2002 at 10.6% of renter households. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Dallas. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 4.6% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 49th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

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.
