Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Rubbervile
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 2/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.1/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 420 evictions over 11 years of observation.
Average gross rent is $928, 10% below the Racine average. The worst year on record was 2001, when 9.2% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 6.0% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $63,170, annual rent is just 18%.
It tracks the Racine County average of 3.7 closely. 49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
