West Memorial Eviction Risk: Lower , Houston

What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 9.8/10. The voucher gap is 47.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.

21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 103 filings here across 7 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2014 at 9.9% of renter households. In a typical year about 7.7% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 12% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 3.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

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.
