What drives eviction risk in Godwin Heights
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.1/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.5/10.
At $882 a month, rents run 26% under what the rest of Wyoming commands. Against Kent County at 43.7%, 49% of renters here are cost-burdened. 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.
That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 6.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $69,717, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Kent County average of 4.2 closely.
37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
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.
