Murfreesboro Eviction Risk: Lower

The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Set annual rent against average income of $59,314 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.7/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.9/10. At $1,632 a month, rents run 10% over what the rest of Murfreesboro commands.

That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 49% of renters. It tracks the Rutherford County average of 3.9 closely.

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.
