· range 3.1–3.5
Copperfield Southpoint spans 2 census tracts of Houston, TX and houses 8,600 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. 53% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Houston rate of 32.1%.
The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,824, 34% above the Houston average of $1,361.
The voucher gap is 19.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. That places it #219 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.
For a like-for-like read, Canterbury Forest and Timbergrove Green score within a fraction of it. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.4 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $89,304.
37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 3.2/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
