33% 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. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.2/10.
Average gross rent is $811, 18% below the Lansing average of $993. SNAP participation is 26.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Coachlight and Rennaissance. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $37,177. 57% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
