Dallas Eviction Risk: Moderate

The poverty rate is 45%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Adults with no health insurance runs 34.7% against 11.3% nationally. 28% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Set annual rent against average income of $33,786 and the ratio lands at 41%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 83% 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.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.1/10.

Disability prevalence runs 45.8% against 31.5% nationally. 40% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Dallas County average of 47.9%.

Average gross rent is $1,158, 21% below the Dallas average. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.

Court records carry 3,657 eviction filings across 18 observed years. Filings peaked in 2013 at 21.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 14.3% of renter households face a filing.

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

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.
