Lake View is a 2-tract neighborhood of Winnetka, IL and houses 6,989 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 37%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9.4/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 4.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Court records carry 71 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10. 2.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 4.6% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.9% in 2015, is well off that peak. Only 7% 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.
41% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. Rent takes 9% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
