Chicory Creek Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,900 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Chicory Creek maps to a single census tract in Sturtevant, WI and houses 6,900 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 28% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 2/10. 19% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10. Court records for this tract carry 312 eviction filings. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.8/10.

The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 6.3% of renter households. Average gross rent is $896, 9% below the Sturtevant average of $981.

The most recent observed rate, 3.4% in 2017, is well off that peak. Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Rent takes 12% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
