Deerfield Eviction Risk: Lower

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.4/10. Food insecurity runs 5.7% against 17.8% nationally.

Average gross rent is $1,981, 20% below the Deerfield average. It sits 1.2 points below the Lake County average of 4.4. Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Adults with no health insurance runs 3.9% against 11.3% nationally. The voucher gap is 12.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Chicago. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 8% 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 2.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $188,750, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.9 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.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
