Johnson City Eviction Risk: Lower

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2/10. Average gross rent is $1,239, 21% above the Johnson City average.

Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against the Washington County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 19% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 3.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $90,469, annual rent is just 16%.

Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

37% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
