Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Arlington
Adults with no health insurance runs 36.5% against 11.3% nationally. 30% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $46,396 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is renter territory: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 28%, 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. The filing record is not thin: 1,555 evictions over 17 years of observation.
Filings peaked in 2010 at 20.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 8.1% of renter households face a filing.
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.
