Analysis

What drives eviction risk in St. Charles

Average gross rent is $1,134, 38% below the St. Charles average. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.4/10.

The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against the Kane County average of 4.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. SNAP participation runs 6.0% against 15.2% nationally.

Housing insecurity runs 6.3% against 14.2% nationally. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 9% of average household income of $156,143, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.1 points cooler.

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.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
