Majestic Oaks Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 2,145 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6/10 · range 6–6

Majestic Oaks maps to a single census tract in Madison, WI, population 2,145. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Madison rate of 30.1%.

Severe burden reaches 27%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Average gross rent is $992, 30% below the Madison average of $1,413. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.7/10.

The poverty rate is 24%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. SNAP participation is 27.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The filing record is not thin: 369 evictions logged in this tract. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 12.7% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 7.9% in 2017 against a 12.7% peak. That places it #1 of 61 neighborhoods in Madison. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
