Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Wyandotte

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.3/10. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running hot, economic stress reads 7.5/10. It sits 0.7 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6.

Average gross rent is $872, 10% below the Wyandotte average. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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. Nationally it ranks #28,095 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $59,830, annual rent is just 17%. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 48% of renters.

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.
