What drives eviction risk in Avondale East
At $2,343 a month, rents run 72% over what the rest of Houston commands. The voucher gap is 53.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 17.4% against 31.5% nationally. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $158,958, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
