Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 21.0% against 11.3% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 163 evictions over 18 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2009 at 3.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 29% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $100,806, annual rent is just 17%. It tracks the Dallas County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $1,443, close to the Dallas average.
