Medical District Eviction Risk: Lower , Huntsville

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,512, 29% above the Huntsville average. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.8/10. The voucher gap is 21.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Food insecurity runs 6.1% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 3.5% against 15.2% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 68 filings here across 13 tracked years. Against the Madison County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.

Filings peaked in 2011 at 5.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.8% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
