Horizon Village Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 5,019 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.3/10 · range 7.3–7.3

Horizon Village maps to a single census tract in Zion, IL and houses 5,019 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.3/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Against a Zion baseline of 31.7%, 64% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1.1/10. 26% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 17%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7/10.

At $1,069 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Zion commands. For a like-for-like read, Harbor Ridge and Brighton Ponds score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.3/10 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.
