Hitchman's Haven Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,996 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Hitchman's Haven maps to a single census tract in Rochester Hills, MI and houses 4,996 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Rochester Hills baseline of 27.0%, 45% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

At $663 a month, rents sit 60% under what the rest of Rochester Hills commands. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1/10.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.1/10. The severe-burden share is 17%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. 3.6% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.9/10.

Among the 20 mapped neighborhoods of Rochester Hills, it ranks #12 by risk, the middle third. Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Vistas Of Rochester Hills and Chichester score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $124,107, annual rent is only 6%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
