Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kerrytown

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 9/10. Against the Washtenaw County average of 5.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.2 points. The poverty rate is 36%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The voucher gap is 22.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

53% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Washtenaw County average of 46.5%. Average gross rent is $1,965, 19% above the Ann Arbor average. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10.

The filing record is not thin: 21 evictions over 1 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2014, when 2.6% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing.

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.
