Crimson Canyon Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,579 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Crimson Canyon is a one-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX and houses 2,579 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. 64% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Houston rate of 32.1%.

Average gross rent is $3,039, 123% above the Houston average of $1,361. What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 98.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10. That places it #241 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.

At 7% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Wingspan at Bridgeland and Longwood Village. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $131,598.

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.
