Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Grosse Pointe
On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
It sits 1.6 points below the Wayne County average of 4.6. Well under the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 2.3/10.
SNAP participation runs 4.8% against 15.2% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.0% against 11.3% nationally.
The voucher gap is 12.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. At $1,555 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Grosse Pointe commands. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.
On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2/10.
