Crystal Knoll Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,789 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

Crystal Knoll is a one-tract neighborhood of Georgetown, TX and houses 2,789 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Georgetown rate of 33.0%.

Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10. 67% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

20% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 26%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,558, 13% below the Georgetown average of $1,795. Running cool is supply constraint, at 3/10.

Among the 16 mapped neighborhoods of Georgetown, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Jennings Branch and Estrella. Social vulnerability runs high at 9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $62,557.

One tract means one number: 5.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
