What drives eviction risk in Cypress Forest Lakes
100% 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. The severe-burden share is 32%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $42,946, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.
