Eau Claire: Tenure by Household Income, Renter vs. Owner
These maps compare renters and owners by there household income. Renters
who bring in less than $10,000 to their household tend to live in
student housing, the northside hill and river fronts, and the area
south of the University. These areas tend to be lower income,
especially in the student housing area where the students are going to
school and often only working parttime. There is a tract to the east of the
Third Ward that has a high number of owned houses bringing in less than
$10,000. There are a lot of retired folks living out there, so
their income would be relatively low. There are twice as many
renters bringing home under $10,000 than owners.The majority of renters and owners with household incomes over $100,000 are located on the outskirts of the city. There are far more owners with incomes over $100,000 than there are renters with the same income.
