Average gross rent is $1,579, 16% above the Houston average. It sits 0.9 points below the Harris County average of 4.0.
That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 22% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $71,136.
