Tierra Grande maps to a single census tract in Flossmoor, IL, population 7,171. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.4/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 38% against 22.4% citywide, putting Tierra Grande 15.1% over its own city.
38% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Average gross rent is $1,380, 36% below the Flossmoor average of $2,164. The clearest offset is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.1/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 770 evictions logged in this tract. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10.
Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 41.2% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 21.0% in 2015, is well off that peak.
Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
One tract means one number: 3.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
