Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Continental Square
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 9.3/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Denton County average of 5.0 and above the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,426 eviction filings here over 13 tracked years, with about 20.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.2% of renter households in 2012.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.71x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.
