Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bolingbrook

Against Will County at 40.4%, 87% of renters here are cost-burdened. Set annual rent against average income of $73,750 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Against the Will County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.6 points.

The voucher gap is 23.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. At $2,168 a month, rents run 24% over what the rest of Bolingbrook commands. What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 7.3/10.

SNAP participation runs 24.6% against 15.2% nationally. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 6.9/10.

Food insecurity runs 26.3% against 17.8% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 76% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 12% 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 2.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
