Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Fort Worth
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $46,126, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 26.3% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Tarrant County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points.
The filing record is not thin: 1,694 evictions over 17 years of observation. Average gross rent is $1,355, 10% below the Fort Worth average. Filings peaked in 2011 at 28.2% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. In a typical year about 19.3% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #35,669 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.8/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.
