Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Martin Luther King
The severe-burden share is 35%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.1/10. It sits 0.9 points below the Macomb County average of 3.9.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 5% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.8/10. Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $114,821, an unusually wide affordability cushion. 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 1%, 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.
