Walnut Creek is a one-tract neighborhood of Rosenberg, TX, population 17,681. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.6/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 41%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
53% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Rosenberg rate of 32.2%. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.3/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.4/10.
At $1,658 a month, rents sit 20% over what the rest of Rosenberg commands. Only 19% 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.
Against average income of $111,967, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
