Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dallas

Adults with no health insurance runs 33.1% against 11.3% nationally. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. 69% 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. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

Cost burden runs 55% here against 47.9% across Dallas County. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

It sits 1.3 points above the Dallas County average of 3.8. Court records carry 1,407 eviction filings across 18 observed years. At $1,300 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of Dallas commands.

Filings peaked in 2004 at 8.0% of renter households. In a typical year about 4.9% of renter households face a filing.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
