Barrington Center Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,281 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.2/10 · range 3.2–3.2

Barrington Center maps to a single census tract in Barrington Hills, IL and houses 5,281 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 41%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

57% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Barrington Hills rate of 33.0%. The voucher gap is 37.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10.

Running hot is supply constraint at 8.7/10. At $2,421 a month, rents sit 26% under what the rest of Barrington Hills commands.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.1/10. SNAP participation is 5.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 4.7% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Only 15% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Against average income of $149,545, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
