Orchard Hills Eviction Risk: Lower

29% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The voucher gap is 15.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.8/10. Court records for this tract carry 20 eviction filings. 3.3% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

SNAP participation is 6.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2009, when filings touched 1.4% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 0.5% in 2013, is well off that peak. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of New Berlin, it ranks #3 by risk, the lower third.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Wildcat Creek Heights and Civic. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
