Oakwood Hills is a one-tract neighborhood of Eau Claire, WI and houses 6,038 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.9/10, in the Moderate tier. 48% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Eau Claire rate of 25.1%.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. The filing record is not thin: 235 evictions logged in this tract.
Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 2.1% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 0.9% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #5 of 12 neighborhoods in Eau Claire.
For a like-for-like read, North Side Hill and Randall Park score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,077, close to the Eau Claire average.
Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $53,651. 62% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
