Georgetown is a one-tract neighborhood of Frankfort, IL and houses 8,586 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 12% against 28.4% citywide, putting Georgetown 16.4% under its own city.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. At $1,757 a month, rents sit 28% under what the rest of Frankfort commands. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.2/10.
Food insecurity affects 8.4% of adults, 9.4 points below the national rate. 5.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
At 8% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 13% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
