Marywood Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 16,275 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 3.8–5.4

Marywood spans 3 census tracts of Aurora, IL and houses 16,275 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. 42% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Aurora rate of 28.2%.

The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. At $1,179 a month, rents sit 26% under what the rest of Aurora commands.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3.8 to 5.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. Filings are well documented here: 371 across 3 observed tracts.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 10.9% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 4.4% in 2011, is well off that peak.

That places it #4 of 9 neighborhoods in Aurora. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Against average income of $79,540, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. 34% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.6 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.
