Grant is a 2-tract suburb of Kenosha, WI and houses 9,211 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 24%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Against a Kenosha baseline of 29.7%, 39% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. The poverty rate is 21%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Filings are well documented here: 662 across 2 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 7.5% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 3.5% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 16 neighborhoods in Kenosha. Its 2 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

Average gross rent runs $1,195, close to the Kenosha average. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $58,914.

40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
