Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10. Cost burden runs 58% here against 47.9% across Dallas County.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 25.3% against 11.3% nationally. 14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
The filing record is not thin: 179 evictions over 18 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2006 at 9.8% of renter households.
At $2,031 a month, rents run 9% over what the rest of Farmers Branch commands. In a typical year about 3.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #44,239 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 7.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
