What drives eviction risk in Flint
The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. SNAP participation runs 38.4% against 15.2% nationally.
The severe-burden share is 25%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Disability prevalence runs 43.9% against 31.5% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 7.6/10. It sits 1.1 points above the Genesee County average of 4.3.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
