What drives eviction risk in Frayser Spring Hill
What moves this score most is economic stress at 6.7/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Shelby County average of 4.9 and above the Tennessee statewide average of 4.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.12x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.
The tract is predominantly Black and ranks around the 79th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. High vulnerability tends to track with higher eviction-filing rates when rents climb.
