This is a renter market: 100% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The voucher gap is 33.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1.5/10. At $1,681 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Pearland commands.
That places it #2 of 17 neighborhoods in Pearland. The closest comparables inside the same city are The Strand and Cypress Village. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $66,102.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
