Milwaukee County Research Park Eviction Risk: Lower
1 census tracts · pop 4,320 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10
· range 3.3–3.3
Milwaukee County Research Park maps to a single census tract in Wauwatosa, WI and houses 4,320 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, Lower tier. Against a Wauwatosa baseline of 26.8%, 56% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 25%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The voucher gap is 25.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.1/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10.
The filing record is not thin: 51 evictions logged in this tract. Running hot is supply constraint at 7.5/10. Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 2.5% of renter households.
Food insecurity affects 9.0% of adults, 8.8 points below the national rate. At $1,571 a month, rents sit 9% over what the rest of Wauwatosa commands. The most recent observed rate, 0.2% in 2017, is well off that peak.
Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Wauwatosa, it ranks #2 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Tosa Village and Underwood Parkway.
Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $71,296.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
