Dearborn Place maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX, population 2,305. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.9/10, placing it in the Lower tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Houston rate of 32.1%.
28% 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. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
74% 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. The poverty rate is 22%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. That places it #150 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. The closest comparables inside the same city are Courtlandt Place and Mission Trace.
Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Average gross rent runs $1,379, close to the Houston average.
One tract means one number: 3.9/10 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.
