Villages of Northpointe Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 7,233 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Villages of Northpointe maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX, population 7,233. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Houston baseline of 32.1%, about half of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,678, 23% above the Houston average of $1,361.

Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.

That places it #241 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston. The closest comparables inside the same city are Porter Ranch and Telge Ranch.

Against average income of $117,056, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. 33% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
