Maple Brook Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 6,436 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.3/10 · range 5–6

Maple Brook takes in 2 census tracts of Matteson, IL, population 6,436. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.3/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 40% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the Matteson rate of 30.4%.

20% 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. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 7.8/10. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5 to 6, a 1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

Running cool is economic stress, at 2.7/10. Average gross rent is $1,850, 17% above the Matteson average of $1,580.

Filings are well documented here: 595 across 2 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 35.3% of renter households.

Judgments average 4.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. At 13% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Providence Manor and Michael John Manor score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $90,245.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
