Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Flowerfield

The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The voucher gap is 17.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Food insecurity runs 9.7% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 7.4% against 15.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 46th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 44% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

It tracks the DuPage County average of 4.4 closely. Average gross rent is $2,066, close to the Lombard average.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $109,612.
