Walden Eviction Risk: Lower , Beaumont

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. The voucher gap is 20.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Average gross rent is $1,339, 19% above the Beaumont average. It sits 1.0 points below the Jefferson County average of 4.0. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 19% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $91,875, annual rent is just 17%.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
