Lakemont Shores is a one-tract neighborhood of Houston, TX and houses 16,959 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.8/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs around two-thirds against 32.1% citywide, putting Lakemont Shores 36.6% over its own city.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.4/10.
Average gross rent is $1,722, 27% above the Houston average of $1,361. Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.
The voucher gap is 12.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. That places it #157 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $97,016. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3.8/10 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.
