That places it #2 of 5 neighborhoods in Middleton. For a like-for-like read, Hubbard Avenue Addition and Moraine Highland score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 58% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
