Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ennis

Average gross rent is $2,125, 56% above the Ennis average. The clearest offset is state political climate at 1.5/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.5/10.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10. The voucher gap is 12.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 0.6 points below the Ellis County average of 4.0.

On the national scale it lands near the 29th 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. Social vulnerability reads 5.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $99,761.

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.
