Grand Rapids Eviction Risk: Moderate

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.2/10. Housing insecurity runs 31.8% against 14.2% nationally.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 26.9% against 11.3% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.6/10. Average gross rent is $958, 24% below the Grand Rapids average. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Against the Kent County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. 9% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $51,554.

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.
