1 census tracts · pop 6,347 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10
· range 3–3
Yorkshire maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX, population 6,347. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Average gross rent is $3,238, 138% above the Houston average of $1,361.
What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 111.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. The filing record is not thin: 33 evictions logged in this tract.
The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 6.5% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.2% in 2015, is well off that peak. That places it #241 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.
Only 4% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
