Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dallas

The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 45%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Severe burden reaches 31%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. 78% 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.

Adults with no health insurance runs 29.3% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,063, 28% below the Dallas average.

57% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Dallas County average of 47.9%. Disability prevalence runs 44.2% against 31.5% nationally.

Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. The filing record is not thin: 2,224 evictions over 18 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2015, when 19.7% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 15.1% of renter households face a filing.

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.
