Magnolia Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,154 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Magnolia is a one-tract neighborhood of Lantana, TX, population 5,154. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 44% against 26.6% citywide, putting Magnolia 17.7% over its own city.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 69.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.3/10. 17% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $3,198, 8% below the Lantana average of $3,458. Only 4% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Against average income of $226,076, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
