Lower Greenville Eviction Risk: Lower

4 census tracts · pop 12,468 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Lower Greenville is a 4-tract neighborhood of Dallas, TX and houses 12,468 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.9/10. 38% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Dallas rate of 30.9%. At $1,805 a month, rents sit 23% over what the rest of Dallas commands.

The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Court records carry 945 eviction filings across its 4 observed tracts.

Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 4.7% of renter households. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 2.5% in 2017, is well off that peak.

Among the 36 mapped neighborhoods of Dallas, it ranks #32 by risk, the lower third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Harwood District and Lakewood.

Against average income of $142,542, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion. The 4 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes. 43% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
