Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Port Huron

It sits 2.0 points above the St. Clair County average of 3.9. The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

SNAP participation runs 32.3% against 15.2% nationally. This is renter territory: 68% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
