Town Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Katy, TX, population 4,108. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.

Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.9/10. Cost burden runs 32% against 40.0% citywide, putting Town Park 8.4% under its own city. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10.

Court records for this tract carry 102 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 5.3% of renter households. At $1,449 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Katy commands.

Recent filings have not receded much: 3.3% in 2015 against a 5.3% peak. That places it #1 of 4 neighborhoods in Katy. For a like-for-like read, Pin Oak Village and Grayson Lakes score within a fraction of it.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $79,625. 32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 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.
