Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 26125144500
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.5/10. 20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.3/10.
This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Pontiac. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. Nationally it ranks #47,371 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 10% 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.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $96,023, annual rent is just 15%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
It tracks the Oakland County average of 4.0 closely. Average gross rent runs $1,188 a month.
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.
