Seniorland is a 4-tract neighborhood of Champaign, IL and houses 11,304 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6.8/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Champaign rate of 34.9%.
The severe-burden share is 34%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10.
The poverty rate is 37%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. This is a renter market: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Running hot is housing-court posture at 8.3/10. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 6 to 7.7. A 1.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10. At $980 a month, rents sit 13% under what the rest of Champaign commands.
That places it #4 of 13 neighborhoods in Champaign. The closest comparables inside the same city are Lake Park and Dobbins Downs. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $51,194.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.8 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
