Hyde Park Eviction Risk: Lower

At $1,805 a month, rents sit 33% over what the rest of Houston commands. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 18.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

11% 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. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.

Cost burden runs 28% against 32.1% citywide, putting Hyde Park 4.6% under its own city. Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #241 by risk, the middle third.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Wingspan at Bridgeland and Longwood Village. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes. 56% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
