Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hoffman Estates

32% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Cook County average of 45.6%. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.7/10. Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. Court records carry 268 eviction filings across 15 observed years.

At $1,492 a month, rents run 14% under what the rest of Hoffman Estates commands. SNAP participation runs 7.9% against 15.2% nationally. Filings peaked in 2014 at 8.6% of renter households.

In a typical year about 4.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.2/10. Against average income of $109,856, annual rent is just 16%. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
