Tarrytown Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,111 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Tarrytown is a one-tract neighborhood of Austin, TX, population 4,111. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 46%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

52% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Austin rate of 29.1%. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.

At $2,214 a month, rents sit 28% over what the rest of Austin commands. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

Court records for this tract carry 18 eviction filings. The voucher gap is 13.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The worst year on record was 2001, when filings touched 0.9% of renter households.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.0% in 2012 against a 0.9% peak. Among the 151 mapped neighborhoods of Austin, it ranks #125 by risk, the lower third.

At 10% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
