Analysis
What drives eviction risk in North Huntsville Industrial Park
At $963 a month, rents run 29% under what the rest of Meridianville commands. 20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10. It sits 0.7 points below the Madison County average of 3.7.
Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 7% 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.

Statewide the AL average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 42% of renters.
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.
