What drives eviction risk in Murray Park
Severe burden reaches 30%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.
The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Set annual rent against average income of $37,009 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 23.9% against 11.3% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,086, 20% below the Houston average.
It sits 1.1 points above the Harris County average of 4.0. Nationally it ranks #31,049 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 9.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
