Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Yaupon Grove

Adults with no health insurance runs 32.9% against 11.3% nationally. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 126 filings here across 7 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2013, when 7.4% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 6.1% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
