Bay View Eviction Risk: Moderate , Milwaukee

At $1,412 a month, rents run 33% over what the rest of Milwaukee commands. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

This is renter territory: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income of $52,772, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.1/10.

The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Milwaukee County average of 4.5, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.

Food insecurity runs 29.4% against 17.8% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.5/10.

The filing record is not thin: 626 evictions over 13 years of observation. Housing insecurity runs 21.8% against 14.2% nationally.

The voucher gap is 12.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

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.
