Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Valley in the Park
It sits 3.0 points below the Cook County average of 6.1. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,273, 31% above the Hoffman Estates average.
The voucher gap is 29.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.9/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 24 evictions over 9 years of observation. SNAP participation runs 7.6% against 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity runs 10.4% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2013 at 17.1% of renter households. Nationally it ranks #65,414 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
The most recent observed rate, 8.6% in 2014, is well off that peak. Only 6% 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.
Social vulnerability reads 3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
