Prices here sit in a expansion phase: values rose 6.5% over the trailing year, and 17% higher over three years (phase confidence 48/100). Appreciation rarely lifts every parcel — the laggards are the opportunity.

Roughly 10.7% live below the poverty line. Population is roughly 4,255 with a median age of 34. DLRadar's demographic-stress index for the area reads 28/100.

On balance 49076 is mixed, rewarding parcel-by-parcel screening over broad assumptions. While 49076 carries no listed distressed parcels today, each signal above ties back to a public dataset on the same national scale.

No ZIP is too small to score: 49076 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 24/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 49076, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

49076's score blends several independent layers — foreclosure and mortgage stress, tax and lien delinquency, bank headwind and structural exposure — into one 0–100 number, so understanding the components matters as much as the headline for anyone screening the ZIP. Practically, 49076 works as a screen — verify the reading, drill to the specific parcels driving it, and carry the deal through capital and closing on the platform.
