Grandmont Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 7,339 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.2/10 · range 3.8–6

Grandmont spans 3 census tracts of Detroit, MI, population 7,339. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 63% against 35.9% citywide, putting Grandmont 26.9% over its own city.

Severe burden reaches 34%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. SNAP participation is 40.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

24.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.8 to 6, a 2.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. That places it #102 of 130 neighborhoods in Detroit.

For a like-for-like read, Blackstone Park and Corktown score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $1,122, close to the Detroit average.

Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $45,085. 47% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
