Techny Eviction Risk: Lower , Northfield

28% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. roughly one in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Cook County average of 45.6%.

The voucher gap is 33.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 8.3/10.

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.7/10. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10.

Housing insecurity runs 4.5% against 14.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 45 evictions over 15 years of observation.

Average gross rent is $2,349, 13% above the Northfield average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 2.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The worst year on record was 2013, when 5.4% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 4.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
