Pembroke spans 8 census tracts of Troy, MI and houses 20,171 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Troy baseline of 25.7%, 44% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Scores across the 8 constituent tracts range from 3 to 5.7. A 2.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. The voucher gap is 22.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. 17% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 2.9/10. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Troy, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Average gross rent runs $1,688, close to the Troy average.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $95,482. 52% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.3 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
