Cole Creek Manor is a 2-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX, population 7,962. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, Moderate tier. 60% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Houston rate of 32.1%.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. This is a renter market: 74% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Set annual rent against average household income of $44,792 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The poverty rate is 24%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. At $1,197 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Houston commands.
That places it #46 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. For a like-for-like read, Maple Ridge Place and Grants Trace score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Its 2 tracts score within 0.2 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
With little internal variation, 5/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
