Lakeside takes in 2 census tracts of Round Rock, TX and houses 6,905 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 48% against 30.4% citywide, putting Lakeside 17.6% over its own city.
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.6/10. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 4.8, a 1.8-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.
At $2,151 a month, rents sit 22% over what the rest of Round Rock commands. The severe-burden share is 12%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. The voucher gap is 10.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. That places it #13 of 21 neighborhoods in Round Rock.
For a like-for-like read, Homestead at Old Settlers Park and Villages of Chandler Creek score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $91,446. 46% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.5 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.
