Candlelight Plaza Eviction Risk: Moderate , Houston

Adults with no health insurance runs 39.4% against 11.3% nationally. Average gross rent is $813, 40% below the Houston average. The poverty rate is 40%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Cost burden runs 59% here against 49.5% across Harris County. Disability prevalence runs 44.3% against 31.5% nationally.

It sits 1.1 points above the Harris County average of 4.0. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $36,686.

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.
