Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dallas
Severe burden reaches 29%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Annualized rent equals 38% of average household income of $32,480, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. At $1,042 a month, rents run 29% under what the rest of Dallas commands.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Disability prevalence runs 45.0% against 31.5% nationally.
Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. Court records carry 1,850 eviction filings across 18 observed years.
Filings peaked in 2005 at 19.1% of renter households.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
