Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Avalon Place

The voucher gap is 47.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 9.7/10.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10.

67% 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. Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 43% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Harris County average of 49.5%.

It sits 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.3/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $122,569.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
