Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Bedford
37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Tarrant County average of 50.2%. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. This is renter territory: 67% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 4.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Tarrant County average of 3.8 closely.
Average gross rent is $1,394, close to the Bedford average. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $84,519.
