Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Vernon Hills
roughly one in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Lake County average of 42.6%. Food insecurity runs 5.5% against 17.8% nationally.
SNAP participation runs 3.6% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Lake County average of 4.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.2/10.
On the national scale it lands near the 27th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 1% 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 1.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.8 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 1%, 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.
