Analysis

What drives eviction risk in South Pier District

The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. 71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.1/10.

Against the Sheboygan County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.3/10.

SNAP participation runs 26.7% against 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 855 evictions over 17 years of observation.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.9/10. At $829 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Sheboygan commands. The worst year on record was 2017, when 6.2% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 3.9% of renter households face a filing.

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.
