Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lake Delton
Severe burden reaches 22%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.7/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10.
That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 16% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $85,078, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
29% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Sauk County average of 3.7 closely. Average gross rent is $1,039, close to the Lake Delton average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
