Analysis
What drives eviction risk in La Marque
The voucher gap is 45.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 9.5/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.1/10.
36% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Galveston County average of 46.2%. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.3/10.
Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. It sits 1.0 points below the Galveston County average of 4.0. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.8/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
