Wheaton Eviction Risk: Lower

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 22.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $2,158, 20% above the Wheaton average.

Food insecurity runs 7.1% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.3/10. SNAP participation runs 5.6% against 15.2% nationally.

The severe-burden share is 10%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 0.7 points below the DuPage County average of 4.4.

On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, 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.
