Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Fairmount
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
It sits 0.7 points below the Tarrant County average of 3.8. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
Rent takes 30% or more of income for about half of renters. Average gross rent is $1,487, close to the Fort Worth average. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $89,583.
48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
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.
