Memphis Eviction Risk: Moderate

The poverty rate is 41%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Average gross rent is $752, 36% below the Memphis average. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Disability prevalence runs 50.0% against 31.5% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Cost burden runs 55% here against 48.3% across Shelby County. It sits 1.1 points above the Shelby County average of 4.3.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the TN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

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.
