Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 26049010912
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. roughly one in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Genesee County average of 45.3%.
Running cool, economic stress reads 2.1/10. The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against the Genesee County average of 4.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.
This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Flint. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. On the national scale it lands near the 33rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 22% 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 6.7/10. Against average income of $55,549, annual rent is just 12%.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent runs $549 a month.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
