Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Williams Bay

The voucher gap is 46.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The dominant input is supply constraint at 9.7/10.

Against Walworth County at 34.8%, 20% of renters here are cost-burdened. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.1/10. Food insecurity runs 6.5% against 17.8% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 8%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. It sits 0.8 points below the Walworth County average of 3.8.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the WI average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
