Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Civic

Against Waukesha County at 40.0%, 27% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.9/10.

The voucher gap is 20.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.8/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 7 filings here across 4 tracked years. Housing insecurity runs 6.3% against 14.2% nationally.

Against the Waukesha County average of 3.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2002 at 1.6% of renter households.

In a typical year about 0.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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.
