That address is in Gunspoint, so no real surprise.

I don't know about that. There doesn't seem to be very many Amish people living there. It appears to be largely hispanic and black. And we know they never cause anyone any trouble.

“Crime problems in Greenspoint climaxed with the abduction and murder of Harris County Sheriff’s deputy Roxyann Allee at the mall in 1991; the area’s crime wave earned it the moniker “Gunspoint.”[6]”
