Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tanglewood

What moves this score most is supply constraint at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Houston eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

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

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 4 eviction filings here over 4 tracked years, with about 1.8% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 2.5% of renter households in 2010.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.33x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.

For a landlord, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
