Burton Eviction Risk: Moderate

Cost burden runs 60% here against 45.3% across Genesee County. 29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.3/10. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 7.3/10. SNAP participation runs 24.2% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Genesee County average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points.

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. Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 6.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,015, close to the Burton average.

Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $48,401.

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.
