Mahatma Gandhi District Eviction Risk: Moderate , Houston

98% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Set annual rent against average income of $34,648 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Disability prevalence runs 48.4% against 31.5% nationally. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Average gross rent is $1,050, 23% below the Houston average.

56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Harris County average of 49.5%. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
