Woodland Heights Eviction Risk: Lower , Houston

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,849, 36% above the Houston average. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.1/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 17.8% against 31.5% nationally. The voucher gap is 20.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

13% 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 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.6/10. Against average income of $127,371, annual rent is just 17%.

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.
