Crystal Lake Eviction Risk: Lower

Cost burden runs 29% here against 40.1% across McHenry County. At $1,848 a month, rents run 26% over what the rest of Crystal Lake commands. Food insecurity runs 7.9% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.3% against 15.2% nationally. Nationally it ranks #54,273 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 8% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability reads 2.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.4 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.

It tracks the McHenry County average of 4.3 closely. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $109,127.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
