Duval Springs Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,393 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Duval Springs maps to a single census tract in Austin, TX and houses 4,393 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 29.1% citywide, putting Duval Springs 16.7% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 25%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

Running cool is economic stress, at 1.6/10. At $1,990 a month, rents sit 15% over what the rest of Austin commands.

Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. Among the 151 mapped neighborhoods of Austin, it ranks #116 by risk, the lower third.

At 27% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $104,909.

One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
