Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Woodshire

100% 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. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

At $1,757 a month, rents run 29% over what the rest of Houston commands. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The voucher gap is 14.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 0.6 points below the Harris County average of 4.0.

That is riskier than roughly 29% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $87,873.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
