Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Wayne Center

The severe-burden share is 34%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 22.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

It sits 1.2 points below the DuPage County average of 4.4. On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.3/10. SNAP participation runs 7.0% against 15.2% nationally.

Average gross rent is $2,159, 15% above the Bartlett average. Food insecurity runs 9.7% against 17.8% nationally.

On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 3.1/10. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 16% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.9 points cooler.
