Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pasadena

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Cost burden runs 61% here against 49.5% across Harris County. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. The poverty rate is 26%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 489 filings here across 7 tracked years.

It sits 0.8 points above the Harris County average of 4.0. The worst year on record was 2013, when 10.7% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 7.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.5/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
