Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Stratford Knolls

Against Oakland County at 39.8%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.

25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. At $1,292 a month, rents run 21% under what the rest of Rochester Hills commands.

SNAP participation runs 5.2% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Oakland County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.9 points.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.9/10. Housing insecurity runs 6.2% against 14.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 6% 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. Social vulnerability reads 3.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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