Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Rosewood
At $613 a month, rents run 65% under what the rest of Austin commands. Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. The poverty rate is 32%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10.
It sits 1.4 points above the Travis County average of 4.0. Against Travis County at 44.8%, 39% of renters here are cost-burdened. The filing record is not thin: 491 evictions over 12 years of observation.
Filings peaked in 2011 at 7.3% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 6.1% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
