Laurel Place is a one-tract neighborhood of Humble, TX and houses 5,222 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 57% against 37.0% citywide, putting Laurel Place 19.7% over its own city.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Severe burden reaches 34%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The poverty rate is 38%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running hot is economic stress at 9.4/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $42,738 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. At $1,172 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Humble commands. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
