Kentwood Eviction Risk: Moderate

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.6/10. roughly one in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Kent County average of 43.7%. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.1/10.

11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. At $1,097 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Kentwood commands.

That is riskier than roughly 49% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.1/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Kent County average of 4.2 closely.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $67,270. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
