Whispering Oaks Eviction Risk: Lower , Houston

This is renter territory: 76% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Court records carry 207 eviction filings across 7 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 3.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.0% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for about half of renters. It tracks the Harris County average of 4.0 closely. Average gross rent is $1,433, close to the Houston average.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
