Kings River Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,655 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Kings River is a one-tract neighborhood of Atascocita, TX and houses 4,655 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 69%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Cost burden runs around two-thirds against 24.6% citywide, putting Kings River 44.6% over its own city. At $3,101 a month, rents sit 68% over what the rest of Atascocita commands. The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10.

The voucher gap is 102.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.1/10.

That places it #4 of 14 neighborhoods in Atascocita. At 8% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Sierra Ridge and Barton Ridge. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $131,705.

One tract means one number: 3/10 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.
