Mountain Creek takes in 3 census tracts of Pflugerville, TX, population 12,249. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.7/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.7/10.
Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.7. A 1.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 30% of renter households.
Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10. Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of Pflugerville, it ranks #3 by risk, the upper third.
Only 20% 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. The closest comparables inside the same city are Old Town and Villages of Hidden Lake. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $1,904, close to the Pflugerville average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $91,096.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.7 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
