Analysis
What drives eviction risk in University Palisades
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 54.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10.
Against the Washtenaw County average of 5.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.0 points. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.1/10.
The filing record is not thin: 3 evictions over 1 years of observation. Food insecurity runs 9.8% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 7.7% against 15.2% nationally.
Filings peaked in 2014 at 2.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.2% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 4% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
