Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Burton
On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. It sits 1.3 points below the Genesee County average of 4.3. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.3/10.
Food insecurity runs 10.5% against 17.8% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
At 1% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 2.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
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.
