The Oaklands Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,738 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

The Oaklands is a one-tract neighborhood of Round Rock, TX, population 4,738. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Running cool is economic stress, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.

Cost burden runs 34% against 30.4% citywide, putting The Oaklands 3.8% over its own city. That places it #16 of 21 neighborhoods in Round Rock.

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. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent runs $1,830, close to the Round Rock average.

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.
