Monticello is a 3-tract neighborhood of Nashville, TN and houses 13,806 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.1/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Nashville baseline of 31.8%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.7/10. The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.7. A 1.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.7/10. Average gross rent is $1,407, 11% below the Nashville average of $1,586. That places it #20 of 40 neighborhoods in Nashville.
The closest comparables inside the same city are East Nashville and The Overton. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $79,231. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
