Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Westheimer Place

Severe burden reaches 25%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 24.4% against 11.3% nationally. Court records carry 199 eviction filings across 7 observed years.

It sits 0.8 points below the Harris County average of 4.0. The worst year on record was 2014, when 16.8% of renter households were served. At $1,603 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of Mission Bend commands.

In a typical year about 13.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 12% 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 7.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

53% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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.
