Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Vicksburg

24% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. around a third of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Kalamazoo County average of 45.3%. It sits 1.7 points below the Kalamazoo County average of 4.8.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.7/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 51 filings here across 2 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 12.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 8.6% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.1/10. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $74,188, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.
