Park Terrace maps to a single census tract in Champaign, IL, population 5,831. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, in the Moderate tier. 54% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Champaign rate of 34.9%.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.3/10.
Running hot is housing-court posture at 8.3/10. The voucher gap is 20.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $1,303, 16% above the Champaign average of $1,123.
Food insecurity affects 8.4% of adults, 9.4 points below the national rate. SNAP participation is 7.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Among the 13 mapped neighborhoods of Champaign, it ranks #8 by risk, the middle third.
For a like-for-like read, Southwood and Mill Creek score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
