Briscoe Falls Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 8,849 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.1/10 · range 3.1–3.1

Briscoe Falls maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX and houses 8,849 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.1/10, in the Lower tier. At $2,706 a month, rents sit 99% over what the rest of Houston commands.

What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 77.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10. Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #230 by risk, the middle third.

Only 3% 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 Copperbrook and Morton Ranch. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $113,018.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.1/10 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.
