Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mooresburg

What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 5.7/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Mooresburg, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Hawkins County average of 4.0 and below the Tennessee statewide average of 4.3. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 48th 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.

For a landlord, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
