Brookhaven is a 2-tract neighborhood of Norman, OK and houses 7,271 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Norman baseline of 30.4%, 48% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
34% 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 main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 2.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,203, 10% above the Norman average of $1,090.
Among the 11 mapped neighborhoods of Norman, it ranks #7 by risk, the middle third. Against average income of $78,236, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Its 2 tracts score within 0.3 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. 35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 3.3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
