Kendall Ridge maps to a single census tract in Joliet, IL, population 4,312. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.1/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 100%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Against a Joliet baseline of 31.3%, 100% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.
On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10. Among the 11 mapped neighborhoods of Joliet, it ranks #9 by risk, the lower third.
Only 3% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Oakton Run and Cherry Hill score within a fraction of it.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
