Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Chain O' Lakes

15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.3/10. Court records carry 79 eviction filings across 18 observed years.
Food insecurity runs 9.4% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Waupaca County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.
Filings peaked in 2008 at 2.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
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.
