The Fairways at Crystal Falls Eviction Risk: Lower

3 census tracts · pop 14,530 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3–4.3

The Fairways at Crystal Falls takes in 3 census tracts of Leander, TX and houses 14,530 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Leander baseline of 28.4%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Average gross rent is $1,053, 46% below the Leander average of $1,939. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.3/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.3, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Among the 9 mapped neighborhoods of Leander, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third.

Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Northcreek Ranch and Savanna Ranch score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 9% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.3 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
