South Elmhurst Eviction Risk: Lower

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,383, 30% below the Elmhurst average. The severe-burden share is 16%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.9/10. Against the DuPage County average of 4.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.

Housing insecurity runs 6.0% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Nationally it ranks #59,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 1.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 8% of average household income of $208,029, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
