Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Riverside

It sits 2.4 points above the Washtenaw County average of 5.0. This is renter territory: 90% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Severe burden reaches 27%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $41,190, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

On the high side, economic stress reads 8.6/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 264 filings here across 1 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2014 at 20.9% of renter households.

In a typical year about 20.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 87% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.2/10.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
