Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Arlington

28% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. This is renter territory: 89% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $43,008, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,169, 20% below the Arlington average.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.0 points above the Tarrant County average of 3.8.

On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 7.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. 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.
