Chandler Park Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 3,399 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6/10 · range 6–6

Chandler Park maps to a single census tract in Detroit, MI, population 3,399. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6/10, Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 47%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Cost burden runs 80% against 35.9% citywide, putting Chandler Park 43.9% over its own city. 27.4% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 33.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 34%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 8.5/10. At $802 a month, rents sit 25% under what the rest of Detroit commands. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

That places it #3 of 130 neighborhoods in Detroit. The closest comparables inside the same city are Fox Creek and Michigan-Martin.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $33,475.

33% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
