Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Mount Pleasant
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.4/10. Food insecurity runs 8.3% against 17.8% nationally.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.7/10. At $952 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Mount Pleasant commands.
Court records carry 100 eviction filings across 11 observed years. It sits 0.7 points below the Racine County average of 3.7.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The worst year on record was 2011, when 6.2% 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 3.3% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
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.
