Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Grosse Pointe Woods
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. Average gross rent is $3,501, 86% above the Grosse Pointe Woods average. The voucher gap is 154.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.7/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.2/10. It sits 1.6 points below the Wayne County average of 4.6.
Food insecurity runs 6.0% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 4.7% against 15.2% nationally.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.5/10.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
