Winlow Place spans 2 census tracts of Houston, TX and houses 5,066 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
At $1,774 a month, rents sit 30% over what the rest of Houston commands. 41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Houston rate of 32.1%.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.4/10. 14% 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.
The voucher gap is 16.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The filing record is not thin: 74 evictions logged in this tract.
On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 1.4% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.2% in 2015 against a 1.4% peak.
Among the 397 mapped neighborhoods of Houston, it ranks #241 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Wingspan at Bridgeland and Longwood Village.
Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
