Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Audubon Place

At $2,333 a month, rents run 71% over what the rest of Houston commands. Severe burden reaches 34%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The voucher gap is 52.6%: 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.

Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $80,227, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against Harris County at 49.5%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened.

This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Houston. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. On the national scale it lands near the 31st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.7/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
