Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Port Huron

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.3/10. Severe burden reaches 28%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.3/10. Against the St. Clair County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.9 points. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Average gross rent is $865, 12% below the Port Huron average.

Nationally it ranks #20,506 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 4.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $52,337. 34% 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.
