Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Whitehills Lakes
26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.4/10. 67% 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.
The poverty rate is 28%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against Ingham County at 46.5%, 52% of renters here are cost-burdened.
It sits 0.9 points above the Ingham County average of 4.6. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.9/10. That is riskier than roughly 72% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.
