Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pecan Park

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 90 evictions over 7 years of observation. The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

45% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Harris County average of 49.5%. Filings peaked in 2010 at 3.9% 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 2.6% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.8/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
