Charlton Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX and houses 3,685 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 43% against 32.1% citywide, putting Charlton Park 11.1% over its own city.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 27%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Average gross rent is $1,762, 29% above the Houston average of $1,361. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2/10. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.
The voucher gap is 15.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #241 by risk, the middle third. Against average income of $109,728, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.
59% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
