Tall Timbers West Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,427 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.2/10 · range 3.2–3.2

Tall Timbers West is a one-tract neighborhood of Little Rock, AR and houses 5,427 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.2/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Little Rock baseline of 29.6%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 26%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. Average gross rent is $856, 23% below the Little Rock average of $1,106. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2/10.

16.1% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Among the 21 mapped neighborhoods of Little Rock, it ranks #19 by risk, the lower third. At 19% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
