The Grange Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 7,708 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

The Grange is a one-tract neighborhood of Knoxville, TN and houses 7,708 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Against a Knoxville baseline of 31.9%, roughly one in four of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.6/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10.

At $1,418 a month, rents sit 19% over what the rest of Knoxville commands. That places it #42 of 60 neighborhoods in Knoxville.

At 26% 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 Seven Oaks and Ritta.

Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
