Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Saddlewood
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. SNAP participation runs 3.4% against 15.2% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 4.7% against 14.2% nationally.
It sits 1.0 points below the DuPage County average of 4.4. That is riskier than roughly 29% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 3% 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 1.2/10. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
