Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Edgewood

On the high side, housing-court posture reads 8.4/10. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

It sits 1.6 points above the Champaign County average of 5.8. The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.2/10. Cost burden runs roughly one in two here against 44.1% across Champaign County. SNAP participation runs 26.9% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 26.3% against 17.8% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 87% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.3 points hotter.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
