· range 3.3–3.3
Enfield maps to a single census tract in Austin, TX and houses 4,712 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 45% against 29.1% citywide, putting Enfield 15.5% over its own city.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.3/10.
The filing record is not thin: 78 evictions logged in this tract. 10% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 1.4% of renter households.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. The most recent observed rate, 0.4% in 2012, is well off that peak. That places it #116 of 151 neighborhoods in Austin.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Duval Springs and Easton Park. Against average income of $116,055, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $1,770, close to the Austin average.
50% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
