Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lansing

The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10. Average gross rent is $2,207, 122% above the Lansing average. The voucher gap is 95.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.

It sits 1.0 points below the Eaton County average of 4.0. SNAP participation runs 6.6% against 15.2% nationally.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 109 filings here across 8 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally.

Filings peaked in 2010 at 13.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 6.8% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.6/10.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
