Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Farmers Branch
Adults with no health insurance runs 36.4% against 11.3% nationally. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10. Severe burden reaches 29%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points.
The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 132 filings here across 18 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,605, 14% below the Farmers Branch average.
The worst year on record was 2006, when 5.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing.
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.
