Avery Ranch Eviction Risk: Lower

3 census tracts · pop 13,520 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3–4.4

Avery Ranch takes in 3 census tracts of Austin, TX, population 13,520. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

Average gross rent is $2,286, 32% above the Austin average of $1,729. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 28% of renter households. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.

The voucher gap is 17.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.7/10. The severe-burden share is 10%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. Among the 151 mapped neighborhoods of Austin, it ranks #105 by risk, the lower third.

Against average income of $153,242, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.4 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
