Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dallas

Against Dallas County at 47.9%, 63% of renters here are cost-burdened. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $58,068, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

It sits 1.3 points above the Dallas County average of 3.8. Average gross rent is $1,676, 14% above the Dallas average.

That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 6.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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