Historic Starin Park Eviction Risk: Elevated , Whitewater

roughly two in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Walworth County average of 34.8%. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 53%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

SNAP participation runs 38.9% against 15.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.8/10. 94% 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.

Against the Walworth County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.5 points. Set annual rent against average income of $24,200 and the ratio lands at 42%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Food insecurity runs 33.8% against 17.8% nationally.

Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.3/10. At $840 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Whitewater commands. Court records carry 205 eviction filings across 9 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2015, when 4.5% of renter households were served.

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.
