What drives eviction risk in Fox Hills

Running cool, economic stress reads 2.8/10. 8% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 3/10. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Rockford. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. On the national scale it lands near the 25th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
At 10% 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 4.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $90,125, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.9 points cooler. Average gross rent is $1,006, close to the Rockford average.
