Cedar Crest North Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,167 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Cedar Crest North maps to a single census tract in Knoxville, TN and houses 6,167 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 54%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Against a Knoxville baseline of 31.9%, around two-thirds of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.2/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. At $953 a month, rents sit 20% under what the rest of Knoxville commands.

That places it #42 of 60 neighborhoods in Knoxville. At 11% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Cedarchase and Hunting Hills West. Rent takes 12% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
