The dominant input is local political climate at 8/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.6/10. The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Madison. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 47th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 19% 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. Social vulnerability reads 2.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $108,500, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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