LaSalle College Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Detroit, MI and houses 3,373 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 6/10, in the Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 43%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Cost burden runs 64% against 35.9% citywide, putting LaSalle College Park 28.5% over its own city. 26.4% 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. Food insecurity affects 42.5% of adults, 24.7 points above the national rate.

The dominant input is economic stress at 9.2/10. The poverty rate is 37%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 1.4/10. This is a renter market: 68% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. At $888 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Detroit commands. Among the 130 mapped neighborhoods of Detroit, it ranks #3 by risk, the upper third.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $35,714.

One tract means one number: 6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
