How Ironton compares
Risk score vs. parent city, county, state.
CDC Social Vulnerability Index
SVI percentile: 19
CDC/ATSDR 2022. Higher = more vulnerable. National percentile across 84k tracts.
59% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Lubbock County average of 45.8%. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $76,803, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Lubbock County average of 3.6 closely. Average gross rent is $1,133, close to the Lubbock average.
54% 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.
