University Hill Eviction Risk: Moderate , Milwaukee

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 67%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

SNAP participation runs 38.8% against 15.2% nationally. This is renter territory: 100% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Severe burden reaches 29%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity runs 34.7% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. It sits 1.3 points above the Milwaukee County average of 4.5.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 41 evictions over 13 years of observation.

At $953 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Milwaukee commands. Filings peaked in 2003 at 1.8% 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.

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.
