Analysis

What drives eviction risk in East Village Neighborhood

SNAP participation runs 61.8% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 54.2% against 17.8% nationally.

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. 58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Genesee County average of 45.3%. The poverty rate is 36%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

On the high side, economic stress reads 8.9/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

It sits 1.1 points above the Genesee County average of 4.3. Average gross rent is $806, 12% below the Flint average.

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. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.5/10.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
