Houston Eviction Risk: Moderate

Against Harris County at 49.5%, 69% of renters here are cost-burdened. Adults with no health insurance runs 44.9% against 11.3% nationally. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $41,759, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Disability prevalence runs 43.9% against 31.5% nationally. The poverty rate is 23%. 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. Court records carry 96 eviction filings across 7 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2010 at 4.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #31,049 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
