Bridgestone Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,351 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Bridgestone is a one-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX and houses 5,351 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Houston rate of 32.1%.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,784, 31% above the Houston average of $1,361. The severe-burden share is 14%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. The voucher gap is 16.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.6/10.

That places it #241 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. Only 27% 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.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Porter Ranch and Telge Ranch. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $99,207.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
