Wellington Park takes in 2 census tracts of Johnson City, TN and houses 6,540 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.7/10, Lower tier. 54% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Johnson City rate of 29.8%.
The severe-burden share is 29%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. At $832 a month, rents sit 19% under what the rest of Johnson City commands.
Among the 15 mapped neighborhoods of Johnson City, it ranks #10 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Camp Wildwood and Rural Ridge score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 2 tracts score within 0.3 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $44,680. 43% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 3.7/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
