Fieldstone Eviction Risk: Lower , Elgin

Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 3.0 points. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.1/10.

Average gross rent is $1,796, 32% above the Elgin average. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 20.4% against 11.3% nationally.

The filing record is not thin: 172 evictions over 15 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2010, when 17.9% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 5.4% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 22nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 7.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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