Sherman Terrace Eviction Risk: Moderate , Madison

What pushes it up most is local political climate at 8/10. 19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 1.6 points above the Dane County average of 4.2. Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.6/10.

The filing record is not thin: 577 evictions over 13 years of observation. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.9/10. The worst year on record was 2012, when 4.1% of renter households were served.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. In a typical year about 3.3% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the WI average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.9 points hotter.

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