City of Austin Displacement Risk Areas 2020

To determine displacement risk, researchers at the University of Texas conducted a three-part analysis: the presence of vulnerable populations, residential market appreciation, and demographic change. To determine vulnerable populations, the authors used indicators to identify residents who, according to academic research, are least able to absorb housing costs, which includes: communities of color, low-income households, heads of households without a bachelor's degree or higher, families with children in poverty, and renters.

In 2019 and 2020, the City of Austin Housing and Planning staff updated the data and simplified the categories below.

Vulnerable: Vulnerable populations present, no significant demographic change, some tracts are near or contain high-value and high-appreciation areas.
Active Displacement Risk: Vulnerable populations present, active demographic change, accelerating or appreciating housing market.
Chronic Displacement Risk: Vulnerable populations have been displaced, demographic change has occurred and the housing market is high value and appreciated or appreciating.
Historic Displacement: Tracts previously identified as at-risk to displacement in earlier Uprooted models (2016, 2019)

为评估位移风险，德克萨斯大学的研究人员进行了三项分析：脆弱群体的存在、住宅市场的增值以及人口结构的变化。为确定脆弱群体，作者们采用了指标来识别那些根据学术研究，最难以承担住房成本的居民，包括：有色人种社区、低收入家庭、无学士学位或更高学位的家庭户主、生活在贫困中的儿童家庭和租房者。
在2019年和2020年，奥斯汀市住房和规划部门的工作人员更新了数据，并对以下类别进行了简化。
脆弱群体：存在脆弱群体，无显著的人口结构变化，某些区域靠近或包含高价值和增值区域。
活跃的位移风险：存在脆弱群体，人口结构发生活跃变化，房地产市场加速或增值。
慢性位移风险：脆弱群体已被驱逐，人口结构发生变化，房地产市场价值高且增值。
历史位移：之前在“拔根”模型（2016年、2019年）中被认定为位移风险的区域。
