Austin Eviction Risk: Moderate

Running hot, local political climate reads 8.5/10. The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

66% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

On the national scale it lands near the 47th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. 42% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Williamson County average of 3.8 closely.

Average gross rent is $1,856, close to the Austin average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $108,429.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
