Avondale Square Eviction Risk: Elevated , East Lansing

Against the Ingham County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 3.2 points. The severe-burden share is 36%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.6/10. The poverty rate is 41%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.6/10. Average gross rent is $979, 16% below the East Lansing average. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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.

Nationally it ranks #9,043 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 3.6 points hotter.

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.
