Orchard Hills Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,727 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.9/10 · range 3.9–3.9

Orchard Hills is a one-tract neighborhood of Romeo, MI and houses 3,727 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.9/10, in the Lower tier. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. The severe-burden share is 13%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.5/10. Cost burden runs 19% against 21.9% citywide, putting Orchard Hills 3.4% under its own city. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Average gross rent runs $1,010, close to the Romeo average. 39% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 3.9/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
