Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tanglewood

What moves this score most is supply constraint at 5.5/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Harris County average of 5.2 and in line with the Texas statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.18x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 84 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 2.5% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 3.5% of renter households in 2013.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
