Spring Harbor maps to a single census tract in Madison, WI, population 2,453. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, Moderate tier. 42% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Madison rate of 30.1%.
22% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.9/10. Court records for this tract carry 212 eviction filings.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 7.7% of renter households.
5.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The most recent observed rate, 1.6% in 2017, is well off that peak. Average gross rent is $1,502, 6% above the Madison average of $1,413.
That places it #40 of 61 neighborhoods in Madison. The closest comparables inside the same city are Bay Creek and Newberry Heights.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $86,375.
One tract means one number: 4.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
