West End Historic District Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 6,462 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

West End Historic District spans 2 census tracts of Dallas, TX and houses 6,462 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 9% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well under the Dallas rate of 30.9%.

Average gross rent is $447, 70% below the Dallas average of $1,472. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.6/10.

Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 3/10. That places it #32 of 36 neighborhoods in Dallas. At 13% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Harwood District and Lakewood score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $24,045.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
