What drives eviction risk in Forest Cove
34% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. At $1,890 a month, rents run 39% over what the rest of Houston commands. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.
Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 23.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 297 filings here across 7 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2012, when 11.9% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 8.9% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
At 8% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
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.
