Little Elm Eviction Risk: Lower

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10.

Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. It sits 0.8 points below the Denton County average of 3.8. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 11% 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 1.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $132,941, annual rent is just 16%.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 0%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 49% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Average gross rent is $1,823, close to the Little Elm average.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
