Center Street Marketplace Eviction Risk: Moderate , Milwaukee

81% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Milwaukee County average of 45.8%. Annualized rent equals 59% of average household income of $20,714, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. Housing insecurity runs 44.7% against 14.2% nationally.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 34.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The poverty rate is 63%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

This is renter territory: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. Against the Milwaukee County average of 4.5, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Court records carry 715 eviction filings across 13 observed years. The worst year on record was 2014, when 24.4% of renter households were served.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.

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.
