Edelweiss in the Park is a 3-tract neighborhood of Palos Hills, IL, population 14,419. The Eviction Risk Score is 5/10, in the Moderate tier. Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 4 to 7. A 3-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
42% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Palos Hills rate of 34.9%. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.6/10.

On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7/10. 9% 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. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 30.1% of renter households.
Judgments average 2.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 15% 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 22% of average household income of $80,339.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
