Colony Park takes in 2 census tracts of Sugar Land, TX and houses 7,378 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. At $2,931 a month, rents sit 50% over what the rest of Sugar Land commands.
What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 91.7%: 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. The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Rent consumes at least 30% of income for roughly one in three of renter households. The filing record is not thin: 38 evictions logged in this tract.
Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 9.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #7 of 9 neighborhoods in Sugar Land.
At 7% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
