Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tanglewood

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Average gross rent is $1,726, 27% above the Houston average. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. The voucher gap is 12.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 1.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
