· range 3–4.5
Nottingham West takes in 2 census tracts of Houston, TX and houses 8,457 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.4/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 32.1% citywide, putting Nottingham West 23.3% over its own city.
The severe-burden share is 29%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. This is a renter market: 66% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 4.5, a 1.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Average gross rent is $1,643, 21% above the Houston average of $1,361. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.7/10. That places it #198 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.
For a like-for-like read, Adobe Ridge and Nottingham Forest VIII score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $78,363.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
