Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Fairchilds
Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.3/10.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. At $796 a month, rents run 20% under what the rest of Fairchilds commands. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
10% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Court records carry 146 eviction filings across 14 observed years.
It sits 0.8 points above the Fort Bend County average of 3.8. Filings peaked in 2016 at 8.4% of renter households.
In a typical year about 6.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 53rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
