Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Forest Ridge

Against Genesee County at 45.3%, 31% of renters here are cost-burdened. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 1.3 points below the Genesee County average of 4.3.

Food insecurity runs 9.6% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 8.2% against 15.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 7% 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 1.5/10.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing 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.
