Littlefield Eviction Risk: Elevated , Detroit

34% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Food insecurity runs 54.1% against 17.8% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 39.5% against 14.2% nationally.

The poverty rate is 55%. 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. Set annual rent against average income of $31,719 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Wayne County average of 46.6%. It sits 1.4 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

Average gross rent is $966, 10% below the Detroit average. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 9.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
