Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Creekside of Algonquin

The severe-burden share is 25%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. Against McHenry County at 40.1%, 46% of renters here are cost-burdened.

That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 14% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.7/10, 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 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.

Average gross rent is $1,814, close to the Lake in the Hills average.

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