Briarwood Eviction Risk: Lower , Okemos

32% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Ingham County average of 46.5%. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Against the Ingham County average of 4.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.6 points.

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.1/10. The voucher gap is 17.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Housing insecurity runs 5.9% against 14.2% nationally.

8% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.5% against 11.3% nationally. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $102,985, annual rent is just 15%.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $1,329, close to the Okemos average.

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