Parkridge maps to a single census tract in Knoxville, TN and houses 2,920 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Knoxville baseline of 31.9%, 75% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
38% 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. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Set annual rent against average household income of $36,586 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 34%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side is economic stress at 8.5/10.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. That places it #1 of 60 neighborhoods in Knoxville. For a like-for-like read, Mule Hollow and Crestwood Forest score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,141, close to the Knoxville average. 59% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
