What drives eviction risk in Parkway Village

Adults with no health insurance runs 20.9% against 11.3% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.6/10.

Cost burden runs 53% here against 48.3% across Shelby County. Average gross rent is $1,033, 13% below the Memphis average.

Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.7/10. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter.
