Broadway Historic District Eviction Risk: Moderate
8 census tracts · pop 24,670 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.3/10
· range 3.9–6
Broadway Historic District takes in 8 census tracts of Rock Island, IL, population 24,670. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Rock Island baseline of 32.0%, 44% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3.9 to 6, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.
The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. SNAP participation is 29.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.6/10.
Food insecurity affects 27.6% of adults, 9.8 points above the national rate. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10.
Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Average gross rent runs $857, close to the Rock Island average.
38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
