Jewell Road is a 3-tract neighborhood of Winfield, IL, population 14,150. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. At $872 a month, rents sit 42% under what the rest of Winfield commands.
Cost burden runs 30% against 19.7% citywide, putting Jewell Road 10.2% over its own city. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.8/10.
21% 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. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.8, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.8/10.
Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10. Food insecurity affects 9.0% of adults, 8.8 points below the national rate.
At 18% 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 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
