Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Crestmont

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 9.2/10. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Harris County average of 49.5%. The poverty rate is 37%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Disability prevalence runs 43.8% against 31.5% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 23.4% against 11.3% nationally.

It sits 1.1 points above the Harris County average of 4.0. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 418 filings here across 7 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2014, when 21.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 12.9% of renter households face a filing.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
