Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lindale Park
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 23.3% against 11.3% nationally. It sits 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0.
The filing record is not thin: 146 evictions over 7 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2010 at 3.8% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 2.5% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
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.
