Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Nashville

Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 66% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10.

The poverty rate is 26%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.3 points above the Davidson County average of 3.9.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.3/10. At $1,393 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of Nashville commands.

Nationally it ranks #29,336 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.9/10. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 49% of renters.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $65,446.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
