What drives eviction risk in Happy Homes
SNAP participation runs 60.3% against 15.2% nationally. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. Severe burden reaches 31%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Set annual rent against average income of $29,000 and the ratio lands at 42%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 32%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.
It sits 1.4 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8/10. Against Wayne County at 46.6%, 53% of renters here are cost-burdened.
This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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. Nationally it ranks #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
Social vulnerability reads 9/10 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.
