Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Crete
The main counterweight is supply constraint at 2/10. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10.
Against the Will County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.9/10. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.6/10.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent is $1,238, close to the Crete average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
