Grand Rapids Eviction Risk: Moderate

Food insecurity runs 54.9% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 48%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Adults with no health insurance runs 34.5% against 11.3% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 30%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9.2/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

Against Kent County at 43.7%, 53% of renters here are cost-burdened. Against the Kent County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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 #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.3/10.

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.
