Tamarisk Eviction Risk: Elevated , East Lansing

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.6/10.

The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 9.5/10.

Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $37,440, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Cost burden runs 57% here against 46.5% across Ingham County. This is renter territory: 65% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 89th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 3.6 points hotter.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
