Arrowhead Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,521 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Arrowhead is a one-tract neighborhood of Knoxville, TN and houses 2,521 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

27% 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. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10.

Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. 32% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

At $1,098 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Knoxville commands. Among the 60 mapped neighborhoods of Knoxville, it ranks #34 by risk, the middle third.

At 25% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

One tract means one number: 3.3/10 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.
