The Oaks Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 7,030 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

The Oaks is a one-tract neighborhood of Clarksville, TN, population 7,030. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Clarksville baseline of 29.1%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10.

That places it #15 of 22 neighborhoods in Clarksville. Only 16% 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, Arthurs Court and Centerstone score within a fraction of it.

Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent runs $1,319, close to the Clarksville average.

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.
