Prescott Mill Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,180 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.7/10 · range 3.7–3.7

Prescott Mill maps to a single census tract in Aurora, IL and houses 6,180 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.7/10, Lower tier. 48% 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.

52% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Aurora rate of 28.2%. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.8/10.

Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,869, 17% above the Aurora average of $1,596.

That places it #6 of 9 neighborhoods in Aurora. At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Haven on Long Grove and Frontenac. Against average income of $128,693, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
