Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Millington
The score leans hardest on rent-control risk at 8.8/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Millington, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Tuscola County average of 5.2 and in line with the Michigan statewide average of 5.7. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 32 eviction filings here over 2 tracked years, with about 5.8% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 6.2% of renter households in 2016.
In CDC survey modeling, about 11.6% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 8.8% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
