Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Troy
Cost burden runs 28% here against 39.8% across Oakland County. 79% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The poverty rate is 32%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.1/10. Against the Oakland County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.
13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 6.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.
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.
