Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hunterwood

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.2/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 19.8% against 11.3% nationally. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.

Average gross rent is $1,206, 11% below the Houston average. Nationally it ranks #63,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.1/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $58,355. 61% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
