Galveston Eviction Risk: Moderate

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10. Average gross rent is $1,598, 23% above the Galveston average.

This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Galveston. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.4/10.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $62,829. 26% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
