Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Davison-Schoolcraft

Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Set annual rent against average income of $36,429 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

Against Wayne County at 46.6%, 38% of renters here are cost-burdened. Food insecurity runs 30.6% against 17.8% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.1/10.

Housing insecurity runs 25.7% against 14.2% nationally. At $984 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of Detroit commands.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 6.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Wayne County average of 4.6 closely.

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.
