What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. SNAP participation runs 43.3% against 15.2% nationally.

The poverty rate is 41%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The severe-burden share is 19%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.8/10.

It sits 1.3 points above the Macon County average of 4.7. Housing insecurity runs 25.9% against 14.2% nationally. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.9/10.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 78th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Average gross rent is $790, close to the Decatur average.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $40,658.

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.
