What drives eviction risk in Whitehaven
The poverty rate is 40%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Severe burden reaches 28%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against Shelby County at 48.3%, 62% of renters here are cost-burdened.
81% 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, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.
Disability prevalence runs 47.6% against 31.5% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.8/10.
Average gross rent is $916, 22% below the Memphis average. It sits 1.1 points above the Shelby County average of 4.3. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Social vulnerability reads 9.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
