Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Edgebrook
What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 47.0% against 11.3% nationally. 99% 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.
The poverty rate is 41%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Annualized rent equals 43% of average household income of $31,681, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Disability prevalence runs 47.2% against 31.5% nationally. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
It sits 1.1 points above the Harris County average of 4.0. Average gross rent is $1,137, 16% below the Houston average.
Against Harris County at 49.5%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened.
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.
