What drives eviction risk in Hobby
At $2,199 a month, rents run 62% over what the rest of Houston commands. The voucher gap is 43.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 9.4/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.
Set annual rent against average income of $76,134 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the national scale it lands near the 44th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
It tracks the Fort Bend County average of 3.8 closely.
