Highland Hills North Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,249 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Highland Hills North is a one-tract neighborhood of Highland Village, TX and houses 3,249 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. 20% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well below the Highland Village rate of 38.3%.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10.

The filing record is not thin: 142 evictions logged in this tract. Average gross rent is $2,112, 13% below the Highland Village average of $2,429.

The voucher gap is 12.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 222.6% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 7.1% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #1 of 4 neighborhoods in Highland Village. Only 4% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
