Five Points Eviction Risk: Moderate , Detroit

Severe burden reaches 25%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 6.9/10. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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 49th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for roughly one in two of renters.

It tracks the Wayne County average of 4.6 closely. Average gross rent runs $1,232 a month. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $52,550.

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.
