Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Manawa
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1.4/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.2/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 2.3/10.
11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The filing record is not thin: 90 evictions over 19 years of observation.
Against the Waupaca County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. The worst year on record was 2012, when 2.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.4% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 22nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.8/10. Against average income of $81,275, annual rent is just 12%. Average gross rent is $831, close to the Manawa average.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
