Dearborn Hills spans 3 census tracts of Dearborn, MI, population 14,763. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.8/10, in the Lower tier. Average gross rent is $817, 38% below the Dearborn average of $1,327.
The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 5.1, a 2.1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The dominant input is housing-court posture at 8.1/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.9/10. Against a Dearborn baseline of 38.3%, 45% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.8/10. That places it #8 of 10 neighborhoods in Dearborn.
At 19% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 10% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
