Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fort Worth

Cost burden runs 66% here against 50.2% across Tarrant County. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $38,250, 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. Adults with no health insurance runs 27.0% against 11.3% nationally.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 19%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. At $1,163 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Fort Worth commands.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. It sits 1.0 points above the Tarrant County average of 3.8. The filing record is not thin: 1,706 evictions over 17 years of observation.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
