· range 3.8–3.8
Glen Ridge maps to a single census tract in Austin, TX, population 2,593. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.8/10, Lower tier. 62% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Austin rate of 29.1%.
36% 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. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 83 evictions logged in this tract.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. The worst year on record was 2001, when filings touched 1.6% of renter households. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10.
At $1,549 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Austin commands. The most recent observed rate, 0.2% in 2012, is well off that peak.
Among the 151 mapped neighborhoods of Austin, it ranks #93 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Gateway and Stonelake score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $120,464, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.
One tract means one number: 3.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
