North Glen Ellyn Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 15,628 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.2/10 · range 3.3–4.7

North Glen Ellyn takes in 3 census tracts of Glen Ellyn, IL, population 15,628. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.2/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Cost burden runs 40% against 31.7% citywide, putting North Glen Ellyn 8.6% over its own city. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2/10.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3.3 to 4.7, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Average gross rent is $1,597, 11% above the Glen Ellyn average of $1,433. Food insecurity affects 9.7% of adults, 8.1 points below the national rate.

At 23% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 14% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.4 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
