Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Against the Galveston County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
