Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Memorial Hollow

The severe-burden share is 27%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. 83% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Adults with no health insurance runs 30.0% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.1 points above the Harris County average of 4.0.

Court records carry 113 eviction filings across 7 observed years. The worst year on record was 2013, when 2.7% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 8.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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