Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lindenhurst

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. Against the Lake County average of 4.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.4 points.

Well under the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 2.3/10. Food insecurity runs 9.0% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.9% against 15.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 22% 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 1.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $141,750, 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 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. Average gross rent is $1,827, close to the Lindenhurst average.

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.
