Old North Knoxville Eviction Risk: Moderate

25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10.

At $958 a month, rents run 20% under what the rest of Knoxville commands. Against the Knox County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Cost burden runs 45% here against 40.9% across Knox County. 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 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $49,340.
