East Grand Rapids Eviction Risk: Lower

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.2/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.

The voucher gap is 25.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.2/10.

Against the Kent County average of 4.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.2 points. Housing insecurity runs 4.8% against 14.2% nationally.

Adults with no health insurance runs 3.1% against 11.3% nationally. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Grand Rapids. 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 #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $170,658, annual rent is just 13%.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

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.
