Forest Ridge Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,030 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Forest Ridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Tulsa, OK, population 4,030. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Tulsa rate of 29.0%.

At $1,730 a month, rents sit 64% over what the rest of Tulsa commands. The voucher gap is 46.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 9.7/10. Severe burden reaches 28%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. Food insecurity affects 6.3% of adults, 11.5 points below the national rate.

5.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. That places it #88 of 117 neighborhoods in Tulsa.

For a like-for-like read, Brookwood and Gracemont score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 14% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
