Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Clintonville

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.8/10. 13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Cost burden runs 39% here against 45.5% across Kane County. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 61 filings here across 3 tracked years. At $1,448 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of South Elgin commands.

Filings peaked in 2009 at 8.6% of renter households. In a typical year about 6.5% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 31st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 4.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $105,250, annual rent is just 17%. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.6 points cooler.
