Ridgewood Park maps to a single census tract in Hinsdale, IL and houses 3,944 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Hinsdale baseline of 29.2%, 55% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 12%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.8/10.
SNAP participation is 4.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 3.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Average gross rent is $1,750, 9% below the Hinsdale average of $1,924.
Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Hinsdale, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. At 8% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Rent takes 8% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
