Kingtown maps to a single census tract in Bristol, TN and houses 4,232 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Bristol baseline of 27.9%, 42% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. 17% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
At $702 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Bristol commands. The poverty rate is 17%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.2/10. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Bristol, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are West Ridge and Bristol Industrial Park.
Social vulnerability runs high at 7.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 4.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
