Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Murfreesboro

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Set annual rent against average income of $46,164 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is renter territory: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10.

Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 2/10. It sits 0.9 points above the Rutherford County average of 3.9. Average gross rent is $1,308, 12% below the Murfreesboro average.

That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.4/10. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
