West Side Industrial Park maps to a single census tract in Detroit, MI and houses 1,548 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Average gross rent is $1,930, 80% above the Detroit average of $1,074.
The voucher gap is 40.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 9/10.
71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 34% of renter households. 4.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Among the 130 mapped neighborhoods of Detroit, it ranks #124 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Boston Edison and The Eye score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $93,194.
One tract means one number: 3.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
