Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Scarsdale

The clearest offset is economic stress at 2.2/10. Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Court records carry 283 eviction filings across 15 observed years. Average gross rent is $1,494, 15% below the Arlington Heights average.

Food insecurity runs 10.6% against 17.8% nationally. The worst year on record was 2011, when 2.3% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.4% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 33% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 4.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $102,095, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.5 points cooler.

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