Music Valley Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,133 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Music Valley Village maps to a single census tract in Nashville, TN and houses 6,133 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.7/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10.

The severe-burden share is 13%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Cost burden runs 27% against 31.8% citywide, putting Music Valley Village 4.5% under its own city. At $1,488 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of Nashville commands.

Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Nashville, it ranks #32 by risk, the lower third. Only 15% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Cambridge Park and Shadow Creek.

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 20% of average household income of $87,854.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
