Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Swiss Avenue Historic District

The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at 4.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Dallas eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Dallas County average of 5.2 and in line with the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.37x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 446 eviction filings here over 18 tracked years, with about 2.5% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 4.9% of renter households in 2014.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
