Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Milwaukee Regional Medical Center
The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8.1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.2/10.
On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Court records carry 32 eviction filings across 12 observed years.
Food insecurity runs 10.3% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2015 at 2.9% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 1.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5/10.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
