Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Montesano
The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against the Galveston County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 15% 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 2.7/10.
Rent consumes only 8% of average household income of $132,175, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. 46% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.
