Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Maple Brook
Average gross rent is $877, 44% below the Matteson average. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10.
The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 269 evictions over 15 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2013 at 35.3% of renter households.
In a typical year about 29.6% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 18% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.8/10. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
