Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kewaskum

Against Washington County at 36.7%, 29% of renters here are cost-burdened. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.7/10. The filing record is not thin: 191 evictions over 18 years of observation. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.9/10.

Food insecurity runs 10.2% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2009 at 4.3% of renter households.

In a typical year about 2.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 33% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $96,944, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
