Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dearborn Place
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. This is renter territory: 74% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.
The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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 40th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $95,298, annual rent is just 17%.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for about half of renters. It tracks the Harris County average of 4.0 closely.
Average gross rent is $1,379, close to the Houston average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
