Downer Avenue Eviction Risk: Moderate , Milwaukee

80% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 8.1/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10.

Against Milwaukee County at 45.8%, 40% of renters here are cost-burdened. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 212 evictions over 13 years of observation.

Food insecurity runs 10.1% against 17.8% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,165, 10% above the Milwaukee average. Filings peaked in 2015 at 1.7% of renter households.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 1.2% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the WI average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
