Fairmont Park East spans 2 census tracts of La Porte, TX and houses 9,389 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 8.9/10.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.3/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.5/10.
The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Court records carry 134 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 30.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 7.8% in 2015, is well off that peak. 38% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.
That places it #2 of 4 neighborhoods in La Porte. Only 22% 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.
Against average income of $118,092, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
