What drives eviction risk in Spring Branch East
Adults with no health insurance runs 41.1% against 11.3% nationally. 32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Annualized rent equals 44% of average household income of $43,578, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.
The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. It sits 1.1 points above the Harris County average of 4.0.
Average gross rent is $1,600, 18% above the Houston average. That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.7/10.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
