Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Austinville
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. The voucher gap is 22.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
42% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Harris County average of 49.5%. Adults with no health insurance runs 21.9% against 11.3% nationally.
It sits 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
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.
