Kashmere Gardens Eviction Risk: Moderate , Houston

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Harris County average of 49.5%.

75% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Adults with no health insurance runs 28.5% against 11.3% nationally.

22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Court records carry 156 eviction filings across 7 observed years. The worst year on record was 2009, when 8.2% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Houston. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

In a typical year about 9.0% of renter households face a filing.

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.
