Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Murfreesboro

roughly two in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Rutherford County average of 47.9%. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.3/10. 67% 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.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,159, 22% below the Murfreesboro average.

The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. It sits 0.9 points above the Rutherford County average of 3.9.

Nationally it ranks #35,669 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $49,021.
