Little Kurdistan Eviction Risk: Moderate
5 census tracts · pop 18,776 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.5/10 · range 3.4–5.2
Little Kurdistan spans 5 census tracts of Nashville, TN and houses 18,776 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, in the Moderate tier. 44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Nashville rate of 31.8%.
The severe-burden share is 27%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.7/10.
The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.4 to 5.2, a 1.8-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.3/10.
At $1,312 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Nashville commands. The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Nashville, it ranks #11 by risk, the upper third.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Hermitage and The Vistas. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $68,098.
53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
