Swiss Avenue Historic District Eviction Risk: Moderate , Dallas

86% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 29.4% against 11.3% nationally.

21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 26%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

At $1,138 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Dallas commands. It sits 1.3 points above the Dallas County average of 3.8. The filing record is not thin: 2,085 evictions over 18 years of observation.

The worst year on record was 2002, when 13.2% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 10.2% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
