Downer Avenue Eviction Risk: Lower , Milwaukee

The voucher gap is 42.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Cost burden runs 31% here against 45.8% across Milwaukee County. What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 9.3/10.

20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, 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.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 47 filings here across 12 tracked years.

Food insecurity runs 9.9% against 17.8% nationally. The worst year on record was 2012, when 2.8% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Milwaukee Co. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

In a typical year about 1.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.5/10.
