Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lamont

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.1/10. Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 1/10.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2 filings here across 1 tracked years. Food insecurity runs 9.6% against 17.8% nationally.

Against the Ottawa County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points. SNAP participation runs 8.1% against 15.2% nationally. Filings peaked in 2018 at 6.3% of renter households.

In a typical year about 6.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 8% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 2.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
