What drives eviction risk in BlackHorse Ranch South
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
The voucher gap is 24.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 16% 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 2.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $172,894, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
