Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Richmond
The severe-burden share is 27%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.4/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10.
Cost burden runs 45% here against 37.3% across Wayne County. SNAP participation runs 7.6% against 15.2% nationally.
It sits 0.7 points below the Wayne County average of 3.9. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 19% 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.1/10.
Against average income of $59,745, annual rent is just 17%. Average gross rent is $839, close to the Richmond average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
