Claytown Eviction Risk: Elevated , Detroit

The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 33.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The poverty rate is 50%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.7/10. Disability prevalence runs 51.7% against 31.5% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. It sits 1.4 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. 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. That is riskier than roughly 78% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 9.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $1,082, close to the Detroit average.

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