What drives eviction risk in West Nashville
The severe-burden share is 28%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10. 83% 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.
Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.7/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10. Against the Davidson County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.
The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 41% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Davidson County average of 46.0%.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. That is riskier than roughly 65% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
