Housing insecurity runs 30.6% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 24.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

53% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Wayne County average of 46.6%. 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. On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 5.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 2.7 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent is $847, close to the River Rouge average.

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