What drives eviction risk in West Village
SNAP participation runs 38.8% against 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 26%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. This is renter territory: 80% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The poverty rate is 33%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
At $750 a month, rents run 30% under what the rest of Detroit commands. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.2/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6.
Housing insecurity runs 25.1% against 14.2% nationally. Against Wayne County at 46.6%, roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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 78th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.
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.
