Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $47,862 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

41% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Harris County average of 49.5%. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 8.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
