Analysis
What drives eviction risk in University Park
Against Dallas County at 47.9%, 67% of renters here are cost-burdened. The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10.
The voucher gap is 51.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
The filing record is not thin: 115 evictions over 18 years of observation. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points. At $2,855 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of University Park commands.
Filings peaked in 2002 at 2.1% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 1.2% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
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.
