Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Crete
Against Will County at 40.4%, 58% of renters here are cost-burdened. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.5/10.
Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.8/10.
That is riskier than roughly 38% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 7% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.7/10. Against average income of $107,979, annual rent is just 15%.
Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.3 points cooler. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Will County average of 4.2 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
