Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Evergreen-Outer Drive

At $1,410 a month, rents run 31% over what the rest of Detroit commands. Food insecurity runs 33.1% against 17.8% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. Housing insecurity runs 26.8% against 14.2% nationally.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Severe burden reaches 8%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Cost burden runs 42% here against 46.6% across Wayne County.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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. On the national scale it lands near the 46th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Wayne County average of 4.6 closely.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $78,203.

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