Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sierra Ridge

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. 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. The voucher gap is 25.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. It sits 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 4.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent is $1,921, close to the Atascocita average. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $123,076.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
