What is happening on the ground in Pigeon Roost

Live signals from the county and the city: how much building is underway, how many structures are flagged as derelict or substandard, and reported crime over the past year. Each is shown against the typical Memphis area we cover, measured per square mile so a big suburb and a small neighborhood compare fairly.

Counts cover the Pigeon Roost boundary shown above. The Less/More marker places Pigeon Roost against the per-square-mile rate of every Memphis area we manage, so the raw count is read in context rather than on its own. Refreshed continuously from public records. Reported incidents are not total crime and do not measure how safe an area is or anything about the people who live there. We show the same public figures for every area and rate none. This is factual public data, not legal, investment, or fair-housing advice.

A bit of Pigeon Roost history

Small pocket along the historic Pigeon Roost trace, the dry-weather Chickasaw trail that ran from the Mississippi line into downtown Memphis along what later became Lamar Avenue. The name refers to a massive roost of now-extinct passenger pigeons that the trail led to in the early 1800s; the route was already in heavy Chickasaw use before American settlement. Per <a href="https://storyboardmemphis.org/tag/pigeon-roost-road/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Storyboard Memphis</a>, Pigeon Roost Road predates Memphis itself.

For owners, Pigeon Roost is a rental-demand market. Our typical-rent figure here is built on 20 live comps, so the number is grounded rather than guessed. We price each property to its own block and screen for residents who will stay.
