Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Atwater
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.5/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.6/10. It sits 1.0 points below the Portage County average of 4.5.
Court records carry 38 eviction filings across 7 observed years. The worst year on record was 2002, when 6.9% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 3.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.8/10. Against average income of $73,125, annual rent is just 12%.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
