Lindale Park takes in 6 census tracts of Houston, TX and houses 19,955 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 5.1, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. Severe burden reaches 12%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
33% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. Court records carry 831 eviction filings across its 6 observed tracts.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 17.1% of renter households. At $1,216 a month, rents sit 11% under what the rest of Houston commands.
Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #135 by risk, the middle third. Judgments average 2.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Westchester and Villages at Lakepointe. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $66,525. 41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
