Creekstone is a one-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX, population 4,064. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 66% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
Cost burden runs 81% against 32.1% citywide, putting Creekstone 48.8% over its own city. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Average gross rent is $1,768, 30% above the Houston average of $1,361. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. The voucher gap is 15.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #241 by risk, the middle third.
At 10% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Wingspan at Bridgeland and Longwood Village score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $107,668, annual rent is only 20%, a wide affordability cushion.
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.
