Melrose/Waverly Nashville TN Eviction Risk: Lower

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.7/10. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

38% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Nashville rate of 31.8%. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Nashville, it ranks #31 by risk, the lower third.

For a like-for-like read, Foxhall Close and Devon Park score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 5 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.3 points apart at the extremes. Average gross rent runs $1,661, close to the Nashville average.

45% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
