Braemoor is a one-tract neighborhood of Okemos, MI and houses 3,959 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 5% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far below the Okemos rate of 29.4%.

Average gross rent is $287, 78% below the Okemos average of $1,298. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1/10. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8.1/10.

Food insecurity affects 5.9% of adults, 11.9 points below the national rate. SNAP participation is 4.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Okemos, it ranks #2 by risk, the upper third. Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Rent takes 2% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 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.
