Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Trenton
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. Against the Wayne County average of 4.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.6 points.
The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Food insecurity runs 10.0% against 17.8% nationally.
SNAP participation runs 7.8% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 19% 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 2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 11% of average household income of $94,034, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.
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.
