Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Port Washington
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.9/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.4/10.
Court records carry 51 eviction filings across 16 observed years. Against Ozaukee County at 37.1%, 41% of renters here are cost-burdened.
Housing insecurity runs 6.8% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
The worst year on record was 2016, when 1.9% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.8/10.
Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $75,862, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
