Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Hawkins Glen
Against Kane County at 45.5%, roughly two in three of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 10/10. Average gross rent is $3,501, 113% above the South Elgin average.
The voucher gap is 98.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.7/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.8/10.
Food insecurity runs 8.3% against 17.8% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 30 filings here across 3 tracked years.
It sits 0.9 points below the Kane County average of 4.1. SNAP participation runs 6.9% against 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2009, when 32.0% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 22.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 4% 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.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
