Analysis

What drives eviction risk in North Chattanooga

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.9/10. The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.2/10. It sits 0.9 points below the Hamilton County average of 3.9. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Chattanooga. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.9/10.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $109,963, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent is $1,319, close to the Chattanooga average. 35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
