1 census tracts · pop 4,678 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10
· range 3.6–3.6
Wimbledon Park maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX, population 4,678. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Against a Houston baseline of 32.1%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. 15% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,234, 9% below the Houston average of $1,361.
Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #176 by risk, the middle third. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $63,664.
31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3.6/10 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.
