Park Westheimer maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX and houses 8,808 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, Lower tier. Against a Houston baseline of 32.1%, 58% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
At $2,214 a month, rents sit 63% over what the rest of Houston commands. The voucher gap is 44.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 9.5/10. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10.
Severe burden reaches 16%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. That places it #219 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. For a like-for-like read, Canterbury Forest and Timbergrove Green score within a fraction of it.
Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $108,626.
30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
