Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ancient Tree
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The voucher gap is 17.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Housing insecurity runs 5.1% against 14.2% nationally. At $2,071 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Northbrook commands.
Court records carry 55 eviction filings across 14 observed years. The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.1/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.1% against 11.3% nationally.
Filings peaked in 2010 at 11.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
