Sprecher East maps to a single census tract in Madison, WI, population 2,858. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.
31% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. At $1,675 a month, rents sit 19% over what the rest of Madison commands.
The voucher gap is 13.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10.
Food insecurity affects 8.0% of adults, 9.8 points below the national rate. Among the 61 mapped neighborhoods of Madison, it ranks #56 by risk, the lower third. At 27% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
For a like-for-like read, Dudgeon-Monroe and Glacier Ridge score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
