Lester Brooks is a one-tract neighborhood of Tulsa, OK, population 1,948. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

22% 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. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.

Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. Against a Tulsa baseline of 29.0%, 34% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

That places it #74 of 117 neighborhoods in Tulsa. For a like-for-like read, Madison Court and Lewis Crest score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $995, close to the Tulsa average.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $56,638. 33% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
