The filing record is not thin: 646 evictions over 17 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2006, when 5.9% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 3.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #54,273 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.9/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
roughly one in two of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Tarrant County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $1,486, close to the Bedford average.
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.
