Highland Shores 2-C maps to a single census tract in Highland Village, TX and houses 4,341 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 10/10.
The voucher gap is 58.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,992, 23% above the Highland Village average of $2,429.
44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Highland Village rate of 38.3%. The filing record is not thin: 34 evictions logged in this tract.
The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 79.9% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 5.3% in 2016, is well off that peak.
Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Highland Village, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Only 5% 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. For a like-for-like read, Bandera and Highland Hills North score within a fraction of it.
Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
