New Lenox Eviction Risk: Lower

The clearest offset is economic stress at 2.1/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.7/10.

Food insecurity runs 9.0% against 17.8% nationally. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.9/10.

SNAP participation runs 8.1% against 15.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 40th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $115,893, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Will County average of 4.2 closely. Average gross rent is $1,389, close to the New Lenox average.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
