Fairlin Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,309 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Fairlin maps to a single census tract in Double Oak, TX and houses 4,309 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. 63% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Double Oak rate of 41.3%.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9.1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.2/10. The filing record is not thin: 48 evictions logged in this tract.

Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 7.4% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.6% in 2015, is well off that peak. At 1% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Against average income of $207,059, annual rent is only 8%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,448, close to the Double Oak average.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
