Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2/10. Filings are well documented here: 191 across 2 observed tracts.
Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 4.0% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 3.0% in 2017 against a 4.0% peak. At $1,036 a month, rents sit 7% over what the rest of Ashwaubenon commands.
At 21% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $83,591, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.
The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.9 points apart at the extremes.
With little internal variation, 3.5/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
