Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Novi

59% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Oakland County average of 39.8%. The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. Average gross rent is $2,666, 53% above the Novi average.

The voucher gap is 93.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 9.5/10.

Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $79,409, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. SNAP participation runs 7.3% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 10.3% against 17.8% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 42nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.8/10.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
