Braeside Eviction Risk: Lower , Highland Park

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.3/10.

Disability prevalence runs 17.9% against 31.5% nationally. Against the Lake County average of 4.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.4 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 2.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 5% 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.1/10. Rent consumes only 9% of average household income of $250,001, 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.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
