Magnolia Creek is a 4-tract neighborhood of League City, TX and houses 16,302 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The voucher gap is 33.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.4/10. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10.
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. At $1,500 a month, rents sit 11% under what the rest of League City commands.
Against a League City baseline of 30.5%, 28% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Among the 12 mapped neighborhoods of League City, it ranks #3 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. Against average income of $138,245, annual rent is only 13%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 4 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
