Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Brentwood Oaks
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 3.3/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Davidson County average of 4.5 and in line with the Tennessee statewide average of 4.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 44th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 2.50x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.
