Westbury Eviction Risk: Lower , Houston

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 50 filings here across 7 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,185, 13% below the Houston average. The worst year on record was 2012, when 5.9% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 5.3% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 19% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 11% of average household income of $125,281, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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