Valley south Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,074 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Valley south maps to a single census tract in Tulsa, OK, population 4,074. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 52% against 29.0% citywide, putting Valley south 23.4% over its own city.

Average gross rent is $1,661, 58% above the Tulsa average of $1,052. The voucher gap is 40.9%: 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 9.1/10. 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. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.9/10.

That places it #88 of 117 neighborhoods in Tulsa. For a like-for-like read, Shadow Ridge and Brookwood score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $73,545. 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.
