Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Mill Valley
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. At $1,354 a month, rents run 28% over what the rest of Milwaukee commands.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. It sits 1.3 points below the Milwaukee County average of 4.5.
On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Food insecurity runs 9.0% against 17.8% nationally. Court records carry 11 eviction filings across 5 observed years.
Filings peaked in 2003 at 23.4% of renter households. In a typical year about 9.5% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 3% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.9/10.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
