What drives eviction risk in Houston
Adults with no health insurance runs 50.7% against 11.3% nationally. Disability prevalence runs 53.8% against 31.5% nationally.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $31,083 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. At $952 a month, rents run 30% under what the rest of Houston commands. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
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.
