Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Severe burden reaches 14%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 22.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Average gross rent is $1,082, 9% above the Lansing average of $993. That places it #1 of 30 neighborhoods in Lansing. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $43,909. 59% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 5.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
