Graceland maps to a single census tract in Milwaukee, WI, population 4,775. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Average gross rent is $1,378, 30% above the Milwaukee average of $1,059.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. 15% 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.
32% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. The filing record is not thin: 1,197 evictions logged in this tract.
SNAP participation is 25.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 12.4% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 11.0% in 2017 against a 12.4% peak. That places it #32 of 53 neighborhoods in Milwaukee. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $62,243. 61% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 4.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
