Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Missouri City

Cost burden runs 55% here against 42.8% across Fort Bend County. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1.3/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 23.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Court records carry 620 eviction filings across 14 observed years. The worst year on record was 2012, when 9.3% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 14.0% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 16% 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.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.6/10.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
