Yorkfield spans 2 census tracts of Elmhurst, IL, population 8,985. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.8/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Elmhurst baseline of 28.9%, about half of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The voucher gap is 45.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10.
Average gross rent is $2,563, 30% above the Elmhurst average of $1,975. Running hot is supply constraint at 8.7/10.
20% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 6.9% of adults, 10.9 points below the national rate. At 21% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Its 2 tracts score within 0.7 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $132,723.
With little internal variation, 3.8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
