Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 26049012311
Against Genesee County at 45.3%, 82% of renters here are cost-burdened. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. SNAP participation runs 28.1% against 15.2% nationally.
The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. It sits 0.8 points above the Genesee County average of 4.3.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 25% 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.
Social vulnerability reads 5.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
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.
