Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Auburn Hills

The severe-burden share is 26%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.1/10.

It sits 1.1 points above the Oakland County average of 4.0. The voucher gap is 17.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. At $1,616 a month, rents run 9% over what the rest of Auburn Hills commands.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.8/10.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 43% of renters.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $75,893. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
