Crossroads Park Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 1,338 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.6–3.6

Crossroads Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX and houses 1,338 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Houston baseline of 32.1%, roughly one in two of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 13%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The filing record is not thin: 152 evictions logged in this tract. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.9/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 9.6% of renter households. At $1,494 a month, rents sit 10% over what the rest of Houston commands.

Recent filings have not receded much: 8.4% in 2015 against a 9.6% peak. That places it #176 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Creekstone Village and Wimbledon Park. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $69,756.

One tract means one number: 3.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
