Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dretzka Park
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.9/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.3/10.
At $1,074 a month, rents run 18% under what the rest of Menomonee Falls commands. Food insecurity runs 8.4% against 17.8% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 28 evictions over 4 years of observation.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The worst year on record was 2009, when 1.5% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 33rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.2/10.
Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $87,024, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing 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.
