Pine Mill Ranch Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 10,067 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Pine Mill Ranch maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX and houses 10,067 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 49% against 32.1% citywide, putting Pine Mill Ranch 16.9% over its own city.

At $2,824 a month, rents sit 107% over what the rest of Houston commands. What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10.

The voucher gap is 84.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. 33% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10. That places it #241 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.

At 11% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $175,877, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
