What drives eviction risk in Southbrook
The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 48.3% against 11.3% nationally.
The poverty rate is 57%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The severe-burden share is 32%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
90% 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. Disability prevalence runs 52.0% against 31.5% nationally.
Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $28,375, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Average gross rent is $954, 30% below the Houston average.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. It sits 1.1 points above the Harris County average of 4.0.
Nationally it ranks #31,049 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
