East Bluff spans 2 census tracts of Peoria, IL, population 7,127. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. Against a Peoria baseline of 30.0%, 54% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
SNAP participation is 43.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
The poverty rate is 34%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 21.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 7.7/10.
On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10. Among the 16 mapped neighborhoods of Peoria, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.1 points apart at the extremes. Average gross rent runs $969, close to the Peoria average. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $40,118.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
