Bellchase Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,314 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.1/10 · range 3.1–3.1

Bellchase maps to a single census tract in Lake in the Hills, IL and houses 5,314 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.1/10, placing it in the Lower tier. At $2,317 a month, rents sit 37% over what the rest of Lake in the Hills commands.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 31.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

On the high side is supply constraint at 8.2/10. 32% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.5/10.

9% 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. Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Summer Glen and Creekside of Algonquin score within a fraction of it.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $136,080.

One tract means one number: 3.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
