Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Airline
Severe burden reaches 30%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.
Set annual rent against average income of $36,054 and the ratio lands at 41%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Cost burden runs 38% here against 49.5% across Harris County.
The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Disability prevalence runs 49.0% against 31.5% nationally.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.
Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. Average gross rent is $1,238, 9% below the Houston average.
That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.9/10.
