Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ann Arbor
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 6.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Washtenaw County average of 6.0 and above the Michigan statewide average of 5.7. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
The tract is Asian and White and ranks around the 47th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 23 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 1.4% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 1.4% of renter households in 2014.
