Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Port Washington

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.1/10. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.9/10.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.4/10. SNAP participation runs 6.1% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Ozaukee County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.4% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $110,817, annual rent is just 12%. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $1,088, close to the Port Washington average.

35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
