Pleasant Hill maps to a single census tract in Stoughton, WI, population 6,788. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.1/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Stoughton baseline of 25.9%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2/10.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10. Court records for this tract carry 343 eviction filings.
Filing activity peaked in 2001 at 4.9% of renter households. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. Food insecurity affects 9.3% of adults, 8.5 points below the national rate.
The most recent observed rate, 2.0% in 2017, is well off that peak. Against average income of $80,288, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $1,173, close to the Stoughton average.
28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.1/10 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.
