What drives eviction risk in Inglewood
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10.
Against the Milwaukee County average of 4.5, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.5 points. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 431 filings here across 13 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2017 at 7.7% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 5.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Social vulnerability reads 5.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $81,667, annual rent is just 15%. Statewide the WI average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
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.
