Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Elmo
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, housing-court posture reads 1/10.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
It sits 0.7 points below the Kaufman County average of 3.9. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 17% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 5.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $83,532, annual rent is just 11%.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $778, close to the Elmo average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
