Wayside Village Eviction Risk: Moderate
3 census tracts · pop 14,375 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.1/10 · range 5.1–5.1
Wayside Village takes in 3 census tracts of Houston, TX, population 14,375. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.1/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 64% against 32.1% citywide, putting Wayside Village 31.8% over its own city.
Severe burden reaches 36%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. The poverty rate is 24%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. Filings are well documented here: 1,305 across 3 observed tracts.
The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 22.1% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 13.4% in 2015 against a 22.1% peak. That places it #1 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.
For a like-for-like read, North Shadydale and Grand Vista Lakes score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 3 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Average gross rent runs $1,320, close to the Houston average.
With little internal variation, 5.1/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
