Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Willowbridge

Cost burden runs 95% here against 49.5% across Harris County. The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. At $2,572 a month, rents run 89% over what the rest of Houston commands.

The voucher gap is 68.2%: 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.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Against the Harris County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 25 filings here across 7 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2012 at 28.0% of renter households.

In a typical year about 11.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 10% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.8/10. 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.
