The severe-burden share is 8%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. SNAP participation runs 7.4% against 15.2% nationally.

The worst year on record was 2014, when 28.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 19.3% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 3.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

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.
