Creamery Corners Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,739 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Creamery Corners is a one-tract neighborhood of Lake Bluff, IL and houses 5,739 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. 54% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Lake Bluff rate of 36.1%.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.6/10. Severe burden reaches 14%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.6/10. SNAP participation is 5.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. At $1,772 a month, rents sit 14% under what the rest of Lake Bluff commands.

3.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Only 12% 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 $158,633, annual rent is only 13%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 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.
