Oak Hill maps to a single census tract in Nashville, TN and houses 3,154 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. 39% 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.
Cost burden runs 63% against 31.8% citywide, putting Oak Hill 31.3% over its own city. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.7/10. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.1/10.
The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Average gross rent is $1,288, 19% below the Nashville average of $1,586.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. Among the 40 mapped neighborhoods of Nashville, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
For a like-for-like read, New Heights District and Tusculum Square score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $56,395.
64% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 5.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
