Pierce Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 7,200 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Pierce spans 2 census tracts of Beverly Hills, MI and houses 7,200 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Beverly Hills baseline of 27.2%, 4% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The voucher gap is 56.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 8.5/10.

Disability prevalence reaches 17.7% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. SNAP participation is 4.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes. Average gross rent runs $2,150, close to the Beverly Hills average.

With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
