Brookwood Forest is a one-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX, population 5,530. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, in the Moderate tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
78% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. The severe-burden share is 23%. 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 40% against 32.1% citywide, putting Brookwood Forest 7.6% over its own city.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.3/10. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,483, 9% above the Houston average of $1,361.
That places it #86 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. The closest comparables inside the same city are Southmore Plaza and Washington Terrace. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $67,251.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
