South Hall Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,217 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.2/10 · range 5.2–5.2

South Hall maps to a single census tract in Alcoa, TN and houses 3,217 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Alcoa baseline of 29.2%, roughly one in two of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.5/10. 24% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

At $1,003 a month, rents sit 22% under what the rest of Alcoa commands. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10. That places it #1 of 4 neighborhoods in Alcoa. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $46,304.

42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 5.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
