Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Grand Prairie

32% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Dallas County average of 47.9%. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.1/10. Average gross rent is $1,144, 30% below the Grand Prairie average.

The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points.

The filing record is not thin: 208 evictions over 18 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2005, when 16.9% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 8.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 55% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
