Sunset Hills Eviction Risk: Moderate

Severe burden reaches 32%. 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 2.4/10. Average gross rent is $1,657, 17% above the Madison average of $1,413.

Court records for this tract carry 32 eviction filings. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. The voucher gap is 12.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Filing activity peaked in 2002 at 1.1% of renter households. 5.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

The most recent observed rate, 0.4% in 2017, is well off that peak. Among the 61 mapped neighborhoods of Madison, it ranks #42 by risk, the lower third. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $98,276.

One tract means one number: 4.4/10 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.
