Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Bluemound Heights
The clearest offset is court filing pressure at 0.9/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Food insecurity runs 8.7% against 17.8% nationally.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.7/10. Against the Outagamie County average of 3.9, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.9 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $103,178, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Statewide the WI average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
