What drives eviction risk in College Park
The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. Against Wayne County at 46.6%, 63% of renters here are cost-burdened.
SNAP participation runs 54.3% against 15.2% nationally. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.7/10. The poverty rate is 41%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 30.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Annualized rent equals 39% of average household income of $37,552, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
Against the Wayne County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.
At $1,210 a month, rents run 13% over what the rest of Detroit commands. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Detroit. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
On the national scale it lands near the 78th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 7.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
