Huntington Village is a 5-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX and houses 20,744 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.7/10, in the Moderate tier. 60% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Houston rate of 32.1%.
The severe-burden share is 36%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4 to 5.1, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.
Court records carry 432 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 16.4% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 11.6% in 2015 against a 16.4% peak.
That places it #69 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Average gross rent runs $1,328, close to the Houston average. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $55,253.
44% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
