Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Memorial Parkway
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 0.8 points below the Harris County average of 4.0. On the national scale it lands near the 25th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $70,700. 54% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
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.
