Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Farmington Historic District

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.5/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.3/10. The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.5/10. The voucher gap is 13.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Detroit. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

On the national scale it lands near the 47th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.5/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Oakland County average of 4.0 closely. Average gross rent is $1,569, close to the Farmington Hills average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $91,607.

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.
