Devonshire Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 8,225 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3–3.5

Devonshire takes in 2 census tracts of Kenosha, WI and houses 8,225 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 42% against 29.7% citywide, putting Devonshire 12.4% over its own city.

Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10.

Court records carry 161 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.6/10.

At $1,013 a month, rents sit 15% under what the rest of Kenosha commands. Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 4.1% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 2.8% in 2017 against a 4.1% peak.

Among the 16 mapped neighborhoods of Kenosha, it ranks #11 by risk, the lower third. At 17% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Forest Park and Isetts.
