North Austin Civic Association Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 10,612 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

North Austin Civic Association is a 2-tract neighborhood of Austin, TX and houses 10,612 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. Against a Austin baseline of 29.1%, around two-thirds of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

37% 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 poverty rate is 40%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The dominant input is economic stress at 9.1/10.

This is a renter market: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Set annual rent against average household income of $37,081 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Average gross rent is $1,196, 31% below the Austin average of $1,729. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.2/10. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

That places it #1 of 151 neighborhoods in Austin. For a like-for-like read, St. Johns and West Congress score within a fraction of it.

Social vulnerability runs high at 9.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
