Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Capitol Valley
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. At $912 a month, rents run 31% under what the rest of Dane commands.
Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.9/10. It sits 1.2 points below the Dane County average of 4.2.
Food insecurity runs 8.7% against 17.8% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 20% 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 1.6/10.
Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $111,134, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the WI average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
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.
