Stoney Ridge Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 7,203 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.3/10 · range 4.3–4.3

Stoney Ridge maps to a single census tract in Austin, TX and houses 7,203 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.3/10, Moderate tier. 76% 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.

89% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Austin rate of 29.1%. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. At $2,241 a month, rents sit 30% over what the rest of Austin commands.

The voucher gap is 15.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.9/10.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. That places it #64 of 151 neighborhoods in Austin.

At 5% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are North Star and MLK. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $89,036.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
