Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Arlington

35% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

79% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Set annual rent against average income of $36,700 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 28.2% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

At $1,115 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of Arlington commands. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

It sits 1.0 points above the Tarrant County average of 3.8. Nationally it ranks #35,669 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

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.
