Highclere Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,656 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Highclere maps to a single census tract in Eau Claire, WI and houses 4,656 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, Lower tier. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 25% of renter households.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.8/10. 18% 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.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. Court records for this tract carry 58 eviction filings.

The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 2.0% of renter households. Food insecurity affects 9.0% of adults, 8.8 points below the national rate. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.3% in 2017 against a 2.0% peak.

At $1,121 a month, rents sit 7% over what the rest of Eau Claire commands. Among the 12 mapped neighborhoods of Eau Claire, it ranks #9 by risk, the lower third.

At 21% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $85,000, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 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.
