Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Novi

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.5/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.

The voucher gap is 29.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Disability prevalence runs 15.8% against 31.5% nationally. Running hot, supply constraint reads 7.9/10.

The severe-burden share is 10%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.0 points below the Oakland County average of 4.0.

Housing insecurity runs 6.7% against 14.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $131,206, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

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.
