Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lace

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.2/10. Average gross rent is $1,490, 20% below the Darien average.

Food insecurity runs 9.8% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 7.8% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $99,750, annual rent is just 18%.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

40% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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.
