Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Colony Oaks
Cost burden runs about one in five here against 33.5% across Outagamie County. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.9/10.

Food insecurity runs 9.8% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2014 at 8.8% of renter households.
In a typical year about 4.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.4/10.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
