Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Park Creek

71% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Harris County average of 49.5%. The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10.

Average gross rent is $2,616, 92% above the Houston average. The voucher gap is 71.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.2/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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.
