Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Vassar Park
The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.7/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.6/10. Against the Genesee County average of 4.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.
Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.3/10.
Average gross rent is $1,093, 8% above the Burton average. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 5.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Against average income of $81,536, annual rent is just 16%. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.
