Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gurnee

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. 15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Disability prevalence runs 19.5% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 1.3 points below the Lake County average of 4.4. SNAP participation runs 6.0% against 15.2% nationally.

At $1,864 a month, rents run 13% over what the rest of Gurnee commands. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 2% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.1/10. Against average income of $144,453, annual rent is just 15%. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.0 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, 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.
