Cesar E. Chavez Drive Eviction Risk: Moderate , Milwaukee

Food insecurity runs 47.6% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 43%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Set annual rent against average income of $32,262 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2/10.

53% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Milwaukee County average of 45.8%. It sits 1.3 points above the Milwaukee County average of 4.5. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

At $886 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Milwaukee commands. Court records carry 933 eviction filings across 13 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2008 at 11.8% of renter households.

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.
