Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 26163555100
The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. The severe-burden share is 16%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against the Wayne County average of 4.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.
On the high side, regional political climate reads 6.9/10. 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. That is riskier than roughly 33% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 5.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Average gross rent runs $1,393 a month.
Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $69,935.
