Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Erb Park
The main counterweight is court filing pressure at 0.9/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.5/10. At $1,215 a month, rents run 18% over what the rest of Appleton commands.
The filing record is not thin: 58 evictions over 8 years of observation. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.9/10.
Food insecurity runs 10.4% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2013 at 1.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 0.8% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 6.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Outagamie County average of 3.9 closely.
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.
