Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lake Highlands

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 513 filings here across 18 tracked years. It sits 0.8 points below the Dallas County average of 3.8. Filings peaked in 2004 at 13.1% of renter households.

In a typical year about 6.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 5.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $127,841, annual rent is just 14%. 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. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $1,502, close to the Dallas average.

31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
