Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Kingsley
The main counterweight is economic stress at 2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10.
That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.9/10.
Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $74,261, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
It tracks the Grand Traverse County average of 3.7 closely. Average gross rent is $1,042, close to the Kingsley average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
