Greencroft Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,966 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.7/10 · range 4.7–4.7

Greencroft Park maps to a single census tract in Lansing, MI, population 1,966. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.7/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 23% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

29% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.8/10.

The poverty rate is 17%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. At $880 a month, rents sit 11% under what the rest of Lansing commands. That places it #19 of 30 neighborhoods in Lansing.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Forest View and Wexford Heights. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 4.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
