Lynn Park Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,152 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Lynn Park maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX, population 3,152. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Houston baseline of 32.1%, 47% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

At $1,855 a month, rents sit 36% over what the rest of Houston commands. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

This is a renter market: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

The voucher gap is 21.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #241 by risk, the middle third. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $99,617.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
