Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Fort Worth
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Against Tarrant County at 50.2%, 62% of renters here are cost-burdened.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $53,912, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
70% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
Against the Tarrant County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points. 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 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.7/10.
