SpringPark spans 6 census tracts of Richardson, TX and houses 20,511 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 40% against 30.1% citywide, putting SpringPark 10.1% over its own city.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.7/10. Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Scores across the 6 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.8. A 1.8-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10. At $1,545 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Richardson commands.
Court records carry 725 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10.
Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 14.1% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.2% in 2017, is well off that peak. At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
