Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Peabody Park
At $1,347 a month, rents run 31% over what the rest of Appleton commands. This is renter territory: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
The severe-burden share is 19%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. 25% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Outagamie County average of 33.5%. The voucher gap is 21.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 7.2/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.9/10.
Against the Outagamie County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points. That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 3.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
