Southmore Plaza Eviction Risk: Moderate , Houston

Adults with no health insurance runs 42.8% against 11.3% nationally. The main counterweight 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 poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Average gross rent is $1,091, 20% below the Houston average. Court records carry 60 eviction filings across 7 observed years. 9% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 0.7 points above the Harris County average of 4.0. Filings peaked in 2011 at 7.9% of renter households.

In a typical year about 3.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 55th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 25% 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.

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.
