Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fort Bend Houston

27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1.3/10.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Average gross rent is $1,631, 16% below the Missouri City average. On the national scale it lands near the 42nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 6.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Fort Bend County average of 3.8 closely.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $83,566.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
