Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Austin

The severe-burden share is 35%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Adults with no health insurance runs 40.1% against 11.3% nationally. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1.1/10.

Average gross rent is $1,190, 31% below the Austin average. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Set annual rent against average income of $43,488 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Travis County average of 4.0. The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

The filing record is not thin: 778 evictions over 12 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2005 at 20.7% of renter households.

In a typical year about 12.9% of renter households face a filing.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
