Mueller Eviction Risk: Lower , Austin

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 16.0% against 31.5% nationally.

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. At $2,103 a month, rents run 22% over what the rest of Austin commands.

Against the Travis County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Austin. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
