Kingsport Eviction Risk: Lower

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 20%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $743, 18% below the Kingsport average.

It sits 0.7 points below the Sullivan County average of 3.7. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 17% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 11% of average household income of $81,101, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

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.
