Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Old Hickory

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.8/10. Food insecurity runs 9.2% against 17.8% nationally.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $93,874, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 37% of renters. It tracks the Washington County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $1,097, close to the West Bend average.

27% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
