Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Midlothian

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.4/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. Against Ellis County at 43.5%, roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened.

At $1,556 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Midlothian commands. That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Ellis County average of 4.0 closely.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $78,654. 49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
