What drives eviction risk in Godwin Heights
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.2/10. 53% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Kent County average of 43.7%. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.1/10.
Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.7/10. At $1,028 a month, rents run 14% under what the rest of Wyoming commands.
This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Grand Rapids. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. On the national scale it lands near the 55th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 20% 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 6.4/10. Against average income of $68,601, annual rent is just 18%.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Kent County average of 4.2 closely.
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.
