Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Parkridge

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $33,120, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The poverty rate is 32%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 27.7% against 11.3% nationally. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

At $1,113 a month, rents run 18% under what the rest of Houston commands. Cost burden runs 54% here against 49.5% across Harris County. Nationally it ranks #31,049 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.9/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

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.
