Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Rubbervile
The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.4/10.
The filing record is not thin: 445 evictions over 11 years of observation. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.9/10. Against the Racine County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points.
Filings peaked in 2013 at 8.1% of renter households. At $949 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of Racine commands.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 5.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $56,569. 33% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
