Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Greenwood Forest

The severe-burden share is 33%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 21.0% against 11.3% nationally. It sits 1.0 points below the Harris County average of 4.0.

At $1,153 a month, rents run 15% under what the rest of Houston commands. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.6/10. Against average income of $87,545, annual rent is just 16%. 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 most pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
