Mill Valley maps to a single census tract in Milwaukee, WI and houses 1,316 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.
Average gross rent is $1,354, 28% above the Milwaukee average of $1,059. 29% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.
On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 11 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 23.4% of renter households.
Food insecurity affects 9.0% of adults, 8.8 points below the national rate. The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2015, is well off that peak.
That places it #50 of 53 neighborhoods in Milwaukee. Only 3% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
For a like-for-like read, Howard Avenue Park and Airport Gateway score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $78,100.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
