2 census tracts · pop 6,317 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Tan Rara Oesta spans 2 census tracts of Knoxville, TN, population 6,317. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10. Against a Knoxville baseline of 31.9%, 38% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. 14% 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.

At $1,410 a month, rents sit 18% over what the rest of Knoxville commands. Among the 60 mapped neighborhoods of Knoxville, it ranks #42 by risk, the lower third.

Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Cedarchase and Hunting Hills West score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $128,286, annual rent is only 13%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
