Swiss Avenue Historic District Eviction Risk: Lower , Dallas

This is renter territory: 81% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Against Dallas County at 47.9%, 37% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. At $1,221 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Dallas commands.

The filing record is not thin: 2,274 evictions over 18 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2007 at 13.2% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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 11.5% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #52,479 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Dallas County average of 3.8 closely. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $71,302.

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.
