Huntsville Eviction Risk: Lower

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10. Average gross rent is $1,428, 22% above the Huntsville average.

It sits 1.0 points below the Limestone County average of 4.0. The voucher gap is 14.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $103,244, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the AL average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
