Deer Cove maps to a single census tract in Arlington, TX, population 6,466. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Average gross rent is $2,190, 49% above the Arlington average of $1,470.
Against a Arlington baseline of 34.7%, about one in five of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10.
The voucher gap is 28.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.
That places it #6 of 10 neighborhoods in Arlington. At 11% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $115,938.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
