Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greens Bayou
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 4.7/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Harris County average of 5.2 and above the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 188 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 5.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 4.3% of renter households in 2009.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 0.78x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, a little under the pre-pandemic norm.
