Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Carpentersville
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.1/10. Average gross rent is $1,779, 26% above the Carpentersville average. The filing record is not thin: 81 evictions over 3 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2010, when 9.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 11.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #44,239 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 3.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Kane County average of 4.1 closely. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $87,980.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
