What drives eviction risk in Richwood
Average gross rent is $1,679, 42% above the Memphis average. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.4/10.
Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 23.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.9/10.
It sits 1.3 points below the Shelby County average of 4.3. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 5.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $83,203. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
