Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Edwardsville

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 30.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Against the Madison County average of 4.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.6 points. Running hot, supply constraint reads 8/10.

Average gross rent is $1,585, 21% above the Edwardsville average. Food insecurity runs 7.5% against 17.8% nationally.

12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. SNAP participation runs 6.1% against 15.2% nationally.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 52 filings here across 11 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2004 at 2.3% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

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