Juneau Highlands Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,429 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.2/10 · range 3.2–3.2

Juneau Highlands is a one-tract neighborhood of West Allis, WI and houses 4,429 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. 43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the West Allis rate of 25.7%.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.6/10. Court records for this tract carry 450 eviction filings.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.5/10. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 4.9% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 4.5% in 2017 against a 4.9% peak. At $943 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of West Allis commands. That places it #7 of 9 neighborhoods in West Allis.

For a like-for-like read, Conrad Gardens and Lincoln Heights Terrace score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $66,543, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
