Art District is a 3-tract neighborhood of Detroit, MI and houses 5,161 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.5/10, Moderate tier. 41% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
59% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Detroit rate of 35.9%. This is a renter market: 88% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Set annual rent against average household income of $42,259 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
The poverty rate is 29%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 4.6 to 6. A 1.4-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
Running hot is economic stress at 7.2/10. At $1,178 a month, rents sit 10% over what the rest of Detroit commands. Among the 130 mapped neighborhoods of Detroit, it ranks #95 by risk, the lower third.
For a like-for-like read, Hubbard Richard and Hubbard Farms score within a fraction of it.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.4 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.
