Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Neighborhood
Cost burden runs 100% here against 46.5% across Ingham County. It sits 3.2 points above the Ingham County average of 4.6. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10.
The poverty rate is 100%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 100% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.6/10.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.6/10. Disability prevalence runs 49.7% against 31.5% nationally.
Housing insecurity runs 30.5% against 14.2% nationally. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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.
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.
