North Edgebrook takes in 2 census tracts of Niles, IL and houses 9,643 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 45% against 29.1% citywide, putting North Edgebrook 16.3% over its own city.
The severe-burden share is 29%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.4 to 6, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2.3/10.
Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.6/10. Court records carry 164 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
Average gross rent is $1,520, 14% above the Niles average of $1,336. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 6.9% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.2% in 2015, is well off that peak.
Only 14% 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. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $76,609.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.6 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
