The Bungalows is a 7-tract neighborhood of Norman, OK, population 27,027. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Norman baseline of 30.4%, 48% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
At $678 a month, rents sit 38% under what the rest of Norman commands. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. This is a renter market: 71% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
21% 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. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.8, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. The poverty rate is 20%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. That places it #5 of 11 neighborhoods in Norman.
Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.3 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
