Cambridge Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Nashville, TN and houses 5,296 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.1/10.
Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.7/10. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for roughly one in three of renter households. 14% 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.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. At $1,792 a month, rents sit 13% over what the rest of Nashville commands.
Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Nashville, it ranks #32 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Music Valley Village and Shadow Creek score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $90,946. 40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
