Prairie Lake Eviction Risk: Lower , Kenosha

At $1,623 a month, rents run 37% over what the rest of Kenosha commands. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.4/10.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.9/10.

It sits 0.8 points below the Kenosha County average of 3.8. Food insecurity runs 10.3% against 17.8% nationally. The voucher gap is 12.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 17% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $134,545, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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.
