Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Chums Corner
Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.4/10. On the softer side, housing-court posture reads 2.4/10.
38% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Grand Traverse County average of 43.0%. Food insecurity runs 10.0% against 17.8% nationally.
It sits 0.7 points below the Grand Traverse County average of 3.7. At $1,299 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of Chums Corner commands.
On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 7% 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.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $90,168, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
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.
