CDC Social Vulnerability Index
SVI percentile: 30
CDC/ATSDR 2022. Higher = more vulnerable. National percentile across 84k tracts.
Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. At $1,182 a month, rents run 20% over what the rest of Port Huron commands.
On the national scale it lands near the 40th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 15% 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.7/10.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 46% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.
It tracks the St. Clair County average of 3.9 closely. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $75,909.
