· range 3.2–3.2
Fox Hills maps to a single census tract in Rockford, IL and houses 1,968 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.
Against a Rockford baseline of 32.1%, about a quarter of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Severe burden reaches 8%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10. That places it #10 of 12 neighborhoods in Rockford. At 10% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Wilshire and LeaLand Place. Against average income of $90,125, annual rent is only 13%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $1,006, close to the Rockford average.
One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
