Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Richfield

On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.9/10. Food insecurity runs 6.3% against 17.8% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.6/10. SNAP participation runs 5.9% against 15.2% nationally.

The filing record is not thin: 17 evictions over 12 years of observation. It sits 0.8 points below the Washington County average of 3.8. Filings peaked in 2006 at 3.7% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1/10. 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. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
