Grover Heights Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,856 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.1/10 · range 4.1–4.1

Grover Heights is a one-tract quarter of Glendale, WI and houses 5,856 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.1/10, Moderate tier. Against a Glendale baseline of 38.2%, 60% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The severe-burden share is 32%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 8.8/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10.

The filing record is not thin: 206 evictions logged in this tract. Average gross rent is $1,221, 15% below the Glendale average of $1,432. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7.2/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 2.0% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.9% in 2017 against a 2.0% peak. Social vulnerability runs high at 8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $63,979. 37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 4.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
