Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Windsor Hill
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 5.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Dane County average of 4.8 and below the Wisconsin statewide average of 4.6. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 28th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 126 eviction filings here over 13 tracked years, with about 1.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 3.0% of renter households in 2010.
