Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Rowlett

Against Dallas County at 47.9%, 69% of renters here are cost-burdened. Pulling hardest the other way is eviction-process difficulty at 1.2/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

The voucher gap is 18.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 0.8 points below the Dallas County average of 3.8.

Average gross rent is $2,228, 12% above the Rowlett average. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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.
