What drives eviction risk in Briarhills
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. Average gross rent is $3,396, 150% above the Houston average. The voucher gap is 122.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. 60% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Harris County average of 49.5%. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.1/10.
It sits 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 21% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $138,571.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
