Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Carol Stream

The severe-burden share is 31%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.4/10. The voucher gap is 24.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

49% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the DuPage County average of 41.4%. On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.4/10. Food insecurity runs 9.8% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 7.2% against 15.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 6.9/10. On the national scale it lands near the 44th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
