What drives eviction risk in Boynton
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.7/10. The poverty rate is 40%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against Wayne County at 46.6%, 37% of renters here are cost-burdened.
Housing insecurity runs 28.9% against 14.2% nationally. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.7/10.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 22.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. It sits 0.9 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6.
At $917 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Lincoln Park commands. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
That is riskier than roughly 72% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
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.
