Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Waverly
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. This is renter territory: 74% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.6/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Food insecurity runs 10.3% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Eaton County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. On the national scale it lands near the 29th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Social vulnerability reads 3.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $87,500, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 0.8 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
